It's funny to look at this site because I have a picture of this building in my dining room from the 90's, before it was all boarded up.

My Grandfather was the engineer at Pilgrim State. My dad lived in one of these houses when he was younger and helped cook for the patients. Some of the patients would come and help my grandma around the house.

So most people are thinking, "This place is creepy as hell."

I'm thinking, "Oh wow. My dad lived there."

Small world.

These are lovely. I think it's the snow that is making things look so different.

I had a childhood friend whose father was a surgeon at Pilgrim State and I spent many a day roaming the grounds of the hospital in the mid to late sixties. I believe the big mansion you see in these pictures was the residence of the head surgeon (no pun intended) and one the other residences, which were quite nice was where my friends family lived.

Nice photographs,
Chris

The inside of the houses looked like they melted, but no signs of fire (weird) houses no longer there. :(
