St Elizabeth’s Hospital Washington D.C.<br />
St. Elizabeths Hospital is a psychiatric hospital operated by the District of Columbia Department of Mental Health. It was the first large-scale, federally-run psychiatric hospital in the United States. Housing several thousand patients at its peak, it has since fallen into disrepair and the grounds are mostly abandoned, although the east campus is still operational and recently opened a new facility. It has many important buildings, foremost among them the Center Building, designed according to the principles of the Kirkbride Plan by Thomas U. Walter , who is perhaps better known as the primary architect of the expansion of the U.S. Capitol. Much of St. Elizabeths' campus has now fallen into disuse and is in serious disrepair. It has been named one of the nation's 11 Most Endangered Places in 2002 by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Access to many areas of the campus, including the abandoned western campus is restricted.
