Description This photograph was taken at an abandoned state mental hospital built in the early 1900s. This scene is an example of one reason many mental hospitals were shut down. Overcrowding was a big issue during the lives of these hospitals. This room sits untouched with mattresses still in tact and beds sitting frame to frame.
