RHH's photos with the keyword: mentally ill

I'll be posting a series of photos taken at the old Northern State Hospital, in its day a state-of-the-art facility for the mentally ill. The place was designed by Frederick Olmsted and included not only a hospital and administration buildings, but an extensive farm and a cannery as well and was meant to be self-supporting. This one of the old hospital or administration buildings and it is on a part of the campus that is closed to visitors as we soon found out. After taking a few photos we were quickly informed that we were not welcome. This part of the campus is still in part in use by the Job Corps and the National Guard. The old farm is now a public park and is in a state of ruin but is accessible to the public. ronaldhanko-orchidhunter.blogspot.com/2013/01/northern-st...
