It is so sad to see a place just look empty like this, I mean when I look at the photos they are breath taking but it once had people working there, and that stage probably had some good years! dont mind me I am just emotional today

I kno that most of the patients in the T.B. hospital were infact. children. i know that sounds so sad, but.... that's prob. what this part of the hospital was used for...

It seems ery ironic that the elevator stoped right infront of the mourge... that's very interesting.

I agree, it definately looks like a crash cart. All units in the hospital still have something very similar with suction set ups, oxygen and other respiratory gases. The drawers most likely had cardic drugs, airways, oxygen masks and equipment like that. It's a holy shit cart.

There are still a few hangout rooms left, you just need to know where to look. I know of a couple in N-8.

My mother, Peggy (Pierce) Savory did a year of her nursing residency at Danvers State. I believe the year would have been around 1964 or 1965. She too remembers the ring of keys... and "those damn creepy tunnels that ran under everything".

Bonus factoid - My mother's grandparents (the MacDonals) owned the farm that existed where the Tara Hotel and Golf course now are (until the property was taken by the State during the "widening" of Rt 95). My mother's parents lived on and worked the farm, which is where my mother and her siblings all grew-up.

And yes, they could see the spires of Danvers State from the farm nearly every day, looming over them from the higher hills.
Yeah, it's a shame that there will no longer be hangout rooms like this, =(. But anyways, anyone know why I can't log in to the forum?

But instead of the Mad Hatter & the March Hare you'll have to settle for Radical Ed in the background pouring his beer.

Never thought of it that way, but yeah it does remind me of the tea scene...now that I can see the Mad Hatter sitting there pouring Alice some tea... Nice reference, Talon!

"A very happy unbirthday to you!"

Been so long since I've been here, and yet I return to such beauty.
