An old dispatch station for the Phoenix Fire Dept., reconstructed in the "Hall of Flame" fire museum - the largest (musuem) of it's type in the world.
(Comment entered before the challenge) The noise is intentional - caused using "Noise" in Photoshop. I don't know how this will go over, but I like it for the challenge topic.

I am a big fan of noise in the right picture and this is a very right picture! Makes me think of something from the 70's! Love it! I wouldn't change a thing!
This picture really does show things that are obsolete. I can't decide whether the grain you have in the picture is intentional or not. To me, it would look better with less grain.
...And to think that this room was state of the art at one time. Fitting for the challenge. I can't decide if I like the grain in the picture. I don't really think it adds to the picture, but it really doesn't distract either. As I study it though, I keep wondering what the button on the side of the desk did. LOL Good Luck in the challenge.
I actually like the grainness in this photo - it may not do very well in general, but it seems perfect choice for this challenge.
Composition is good, as everything in this image is obsolete. However, the total effect is of lacking focal point, main object. That's where you could have done better. 7.
