I’m curious how is the colouring is done? It looks like a picture that WASN’T colorized.

At first glance I didn’t notice people sitting around the dance floor. What a magnificent place.

Would of made for a sweet rave venue in the 90s. Ball rooms are fun.

Do you see the ghost(s)?

What a beautiful room… then you notice some fuckwad decided that the lower level needed steel pipe fencing.

I love it when we see old photos colorized- seeing it in black and white gives the impression things weren’t vibrant and full of life back then but they were. This is beautiful!

Bet some serious fun times have been had here.

Very nice, but no place to hide or get away from people of an unwanted talk.

I love the ghostlike silhouettes of folks who moved while the photo was developing, like the guy in the left standing on the floor, and the folks behind the railings on either level.
I wonder what the structure looked like, or was in just hardwood flooring over a slab, to support so many people dancing. Those grandiose old structures are so stunning. Like the Newport Mansions for example. Massive beams, steel out the wazzoo bc steel tycoons, massive slabs of marble and granite

I just want to tell you, I’m the one who was supposed to take care of everything. I’m the one who was supposed to make everything okay for everybody. It just didn’t work out like that. And I left. I left you. You never did anything wrong. I used to try to forget about you. I used to try to pretend that you didn’t exist, but I can’t. You’re my girl. You’re my little girl. And now, I’m an old broken down piece of meat… and I’m alone. And I deserve to be all alone. I just don’t want you to hate me.

Is that two ghosts on the dance floor?

Pretty sure this inspired a lot of the design at Disney Boardwalk Resort including the basically layout of Atlantic Dance Hall.

If it weren’t for the clear ghost issue haunting the place I’d be down to dance there.

The wiring in the ceiling alone, wow!
I wish I could hear the echo in that room!
