They have unfortunately torn down the building :(

O wow only if they knew what really went on.

Ya i know people have said this before but wow there is still toilet paper on the roll. how long has that been there?

How could people do these horrible things to these people? Mainly little kids. Every time I think about it I start to cry

i love looking at the trees too! those kind of chimneys become structurally unsafe and often have to be taken down.

the spires sold for $20,000 EACH by the way

i drove by there tonight and there are only 3 buildings left... the center admin building and 2 of the wings on each side... all of the others have been torn down.... it's really sad... they sold the spires for $20,000 and they were selling the slate on the roof for $2 million... i only know that because i worked for a stone yard that almost bought it all

ok..so the picture isnt nailed it is cemented to the wall,so someone wanted it to stay for good(it must have had that much meaning)..does it mean that at pennhurst you can be free from what holds you captive..or..does it mean it is a messed up hospital that doesnt let parents see where their kids live..it is a picture that shows people being held against their will to work and be enslaved like penn hurst

i wonder what happened in rooms like this since they were made to not exsist

ok im confused...if people are watching these patients why are they getting hurt...and if the did get hurt why wouldnt you take them to a reg hosp. not a room...

its funny how in some pics things are left behind...all that heavy equipment..they had time to take that 3 floors up and out of the building but they didnt have time to take a fan..or a projector?..think about it

things had to be really bad at penn hurst for them to leave valuable things behind..i wonder why they were in such a hurry to shut the place down..why leave things behind if they are useful?..makes me wonder what really went on

i can just imagine how many little feet walked down those steps
