RHH's photos with the keyword: illness

This photo was taken in the old cannery on the 400 acre agricultural part of the hospital grounds. The cannery provided employment for the residents of the hospital and processed the fruit (especially strawberries) and vegetables that were grown on the farm, as much as 1.5 million pounds annually according to one of the signs. The four buildings that are part of the Cannery are now some of the most ruined and derelict buildings on the site. with roofs falling in, windows gone and old benches and machinery sagging and fallen. ronaldhanko-orchidhunter.blogspot.com/2013/01/northern-st...

This is one of the old cannery buildings in the agricultural area of Northern State Hospital, formerly a state-of-the-art facility for the mentally ill. It is falling in on itself and is probably even a bit dangerous though we went in side and took pictures. The previous picture was taken inside this building. ronaldhanko-orchidhunter.blogspot.com/2013/01/northern-st...
