The Decade Pavilion at the West Burnaby Nonspecific Sickhouse forms an X. Not the stairwell at the center of the X, nor any of the four stairwells at the points of the X, lead to unlocked rooftop access, alas. The top few floors are active patient wards, but no one cares about you -- go where you want. Nurses will let you out of secure wards that you have accidentally let yourself in to with a smile. Nevertheless, these floors can be skipped if you are in a hurry.

Absolutely not to be skipped is the abandoned operating wing on the after-first floor.

The thing on the right is an "illuminator."

This filing cabinet had been crowbarred into, I think unsuccessfully. I imagine this was the (failed) attempt of some former owner of the files, rather than some roaming pill-freak, for instance.

The pamphlet I looked at was printed in 1993.
