Simplex fire alarm pull station in a corridor at the Hampton Inn in Goldsboro, North Carolina. This is the break-glass model of the classic T-bar pull station (note the metal hammer over the handle), however, the glass had been removed from all of the pull stations, leaving the hammer behind. I found this somewhat curious, because, as it was missing consistently throughout the hotel, it was clearly done intentionally, but I have no idea why it was done.
