We are stepping up security again, and plan on having different officers and a K-9 patrolling the grounds 24/7 effective 7/15/2010. You will be arrested and prosecuted if you pass the fence. We will release the dog if you try and run or do not surrender. You are breaking the law by being there. The Massachusetts State Police and Plymouth County Sheriff's Department will also be patrolling the area time to time and will help us capture anyone who enters. Is it really worth getting arrested and facing jail and/or fines? STAY OUT.

The best time to come down here is during the early summer right before the sun sets. If you face the front facade of 93 the orange glow of the setting sun lights up the windows from behind. It looks as if the wards have come to life again, windows ablaze, perhaps as it once looked before the closure of this facility. This is a beautiful, albeit saddening place.

Last time I checked it was still there! I think it's rusted to the ground or something.

My goodness! What a wonderful thing to do with marble, It must have taken forever to get all that detail onto one fireplace. It must have been a beautiful hospital when it was still open. I've seen all the other pictures & there's only a handful of differences between this & more modern hospitals, such as the mesh doors, the steel frame beds, & obviously the fireplace.

I'm too am a full fledged Mottsaholic.

I enjoy indulging too . .. but often, I have to settle for a nice "lonely chair-ee" coke.

Sorry Motts..I just couldn't resist.

Your comment at the beginning of "no other place I wanted to be" makes me think of what a fortunate (and lucky) man you are. I have that feeling too just looking at your photographs and I think to myself, god, I so wish I could also go to these places, experience the sights and the smells. Mr. Motts, you need to invent a "scratch and sniff" website so us lowly people can get the full effect! Until then, I just have to imagine what this room smells like.

I was debating posting my photos of these tubs but as usual you beat me to it! When my buddy Luke and I made it into that room we seriously stood in the doorway for a good 10 minutes just looking at it before we even started shooting. It's just one of those rooms that has the weirdest feeling when you first see it. Great shots!
