Well, I guess the staff didn't want to discuss the barbaric "treatments" performed there, such as pre-frontal lobotomies and the still-used electro-shock therapy. And psych drugs can be a lobotomy in a pill. However, the beer park sounded like a good idea. I hope the patients were allowed to indulge.

I really loved the sincerity of this documentary. I was born and raised in Kings Park, I worked in the various buildings during high school and beyond for about five years in the kitchens and dinning rooms. My mother was a supervisor in Group 4 and there were more friends and family who had some employment in Kings Park. This town never saw the depression because of the multitudes employed here. Thanks for the great memories. Great Job!!!

WOW flash back, I usto go here ALOT when i was young. Went from the top where mountains of dead birds/poo lined its floors from birds that had wondered in through broken windows to the underground channels connecting each building to one another. Very spooky even during the day. I remember a friend daring me to spend 20 minutes locked in a tray in the morgue that still had huge old stains on the floor that looked like blood (uncomfortable to say the least. Good times! Any-who..CHECK OUT MY VIDS!
