Edgewood State Hospital

Pictures from when Edgewood was standing.
Edgewood is the least known of the state mental hospitals. This is probably because of its proximity and ties with Pilgrim State. Edgewood was run by the federal government for the military for a while and later was managed by Pilgrim before permanently closing in 1971. There used to be a huge behemoth of a building visible from Commack road that was torn down in 1989. It also had its own rail spur, tunnel system and power plant just like its siblings. Now it's all gone. It was turned into a state nature preserve and requires a permit to explore. All that remains is a rail spur in the middle of the woods. If you have any experiences exploring this place when it was abandoned please contact us here. Any more info will be greatly appreciated and land you a free magazine.
