Rancho Los Amigos Hospital used to be the LA County Poor farm in 1880. In 1944, a group of 32 patients was transferred from County General Hospital to Rancho Los Amigos for the treatment of poliomyelitis. As a result, Rancho began a long-term rehabilitation program for the victims of polio before the disease was finally overcome with the discovery of the Salk vaccine.

Open, airy, a place of peaceful healing. Ahead of it's time, now waiting. You have captured this well, although tone mapping, etc, robbed your ability to use rich shadows and contrast to further convey the mood. Overall I like it. 8
I like framing, choice of angle, the circular motion of the vegetation coupled wiht the archs. I am unsure about the choice of lighting and/or the exposure. A more moody light would have probalby complemented the place better.
