I really like how the photo is clearly black and white, but the sky still looks blue.

Joe Almeida: I read the State Boys Rebellion. God bless you! What a horrible experience. I lived in Waltham and worked at the Fernald in the McDouglall building (it's now a homeless shelter) I would love to talk to you about strange things that happened there (ghosts).

I like this photo. It is kinda spooky. On a side note, a relative of mine was put in there as a child and was kind of forgotten. She died there, but I would like to know more about this place.

The horrible things we did in the name of science...good god. I also just finished The State Boys Rebellion. It is amazing how bad things were for so long and how they changed so drastically in 50 years. Bravo to you 'boys', Joey. I would have fought for you...I do now in my job as a special education teacher. Yet, still, I am told to mind my own business when fighting for a child. I don't and get in trouble. Crazy, huh? BTW, the pic should be something out of hollywood, not a real hell.

i am a college student wrapping up my final year of school and making a short documentary on the history of Fernald for a project. If there are any
former employees (or even residents on here) on here who would be willing to share any stories or information about Fernald I would me most grateful.
