Before that it was the "Middlesex County Tuberculosis Sanatorium" or something like that. I remember there was an office in the original building that had a large vault door in it that had that painted above it. The vault was so large that they made it into someone's office. This was in the mid 90's.

Very cool, I was young when I saw the insane asylum, it had been long abandoned, we’d make our mom drive past it, lol. My sister and her friends snuck in once and found documents about patients, crazy stuff just left behind.
