New Jersey State Lunatic Asylum - [Abandoned NJ]
Founded by Dorothea Dix in 1848, this hospital is still partially in operation well over 100 years later. While certain wings of the Kirkbride are in complete disrepair, a fully operational psychiatric hospital still exists on the ground as well as a correctional facility. This hospital suffers from a bit of a morbid history as most of the other large asylums do. A doctor by the name of Henry Cotton was the medical director back in the beginnings of its operations. He believed that infections were a key cause to insanity and regularly would subject patients to having their teeth pulled, limbs amputated and other body parts cut open and removed. Thankfully, in recent years much has improved in treating psychiatric patients.
