Yes, this is the the dorm for the people that worked there. It is not the actual hospital. I grew up next to the Park and we would ride our bikes up there and in the park. We saw it when it was still standing... still had some of the old beds in there. I think we took pictures back then... ha...
This is not the old Western State Hospital. The old one still stands. This is the Hill's Ward that housed the workers. NOT the insane.
