Great place to walk around and take pics.
Great place for strolling, biking, roller blading and looking at the mysterious old buildings of the former mental hospital and imagining what life was like there. Adjacent to it is a very nice trail along the Charles River.
What great place to run the pups! Meet great folks out for a run!
really neat. I wish they let you inside (at your own risk) or had some historical information available, but then again I'm glad we get to go in at all. ;) I recommend!
BE CAREFUL - The last time I went there was an uncovered manhole (see photos).This is a very creepy but peaceful place to walk around, thankfully it's open to the public! I have only been during the day because although I don't believe in the supernatural this place looks like a great place for that sort of thing. I could spend hours here looking in windows and taking photos but I haven't been back in a few years so I don't know the current condition. Just the architecture alone is worth visiting this site!
