Poughkeepsie's Abandoned Hudson River State Hospital: Glad to Be Free

As lovely as it is treacherous, Hudson River State Hospital is perhaps the most dangerous building I've ever photographed. Here's why. By Matthew Christopher of Abandoned America

@AbandonedAmerica daaaaamn. are you ever afraid the floor’s going to give out under you or the walls come falling down on you?
@tillybridges sure! This place was terrifying, but, you know, gotta get the photos
@AbandonedAmerica dedication!
@tillybridges some would say an almost unimaginable degree of foolishness, either way I guess it works 😉
@AbandonedAmerica @tillybridges Hi yes as a historian I am compelled to say this is dedication and courage thank you and good night. ❤️
@kittychandler thank you very much, I'm trying very hard not to offer some excuse why it's something else as per @tillybridges request 😬 it's really challenging
@AbandonedAmerica @tillybridges She’s right though, and it’s a good habit to get into. ;)
@AbandonedAmerica @tillybridges (Don’t worry, I have the same problem a lot.)
@kittychandler @tillybridges it is hard to break, it's so reflexive. But to the original point, this was a very scary place and I'm surprised nobody has died in it yet
