I lived in Brentwood, NY until I was 12 yrs old. That was in the 1960's-early 70's. I can remember the school bus driving through the grounds of Pilrgrim State hosp on my way to NorthWest Elementry school. Whenever we drove through on the bus, my memory of patients screaming through the iron bars on the windows, and some very lost people sleeping on the bench seats throughout the grounds. That memory stays with me today, some 40 years later. Love to have a book on the whole history, and pictures of Pilgrim State Hosp. Does anyone know where I could find that? Pls let me know.
