You ever notice how much bigger people used to design windows to be when we depended more on natural, rather than artificial, light? I find that I enjoy learning about the past more than I do about the present. History is so full. So much to learn from.
Yes,the sounds coming from inside were bone chilling at night, and you could see people walking around or standing in the windows.Very depressing and scary to say the least.
Can we just take a moment to realize how that old building that hasn't even been used for 48 years is still in better shape even after a fire than most abandoned malls that are only 10 to 20 years old? What an amazing explore. Great job guys. Thanks.
Stuff, including buildings, just aren't built the way they used to. It's all about making it as cheap as possible to maximize profit. It really honestly sucks.
@@danajoyner9266 But we need to take a moment for the realization what if nobody does that? The moment will pass right by them and they may die without experiencing it.
@@keithwalton they previously said it was used for various odd things afterward by the city, maybe they had stored some stuff there a few decades later for some reason
@@robertmason7553 well I imagine there are loads of issues surrounding Health and Safety legislation, insurance and local government organisations not wanting to see how poorly maintained there taxpayers buildings have become! also remember that episode were there were loads of electoral documents being stored in some abandoned hospital? Am pretty sure that's probably some very bad practise there!
I'm 70 years old and my Mother was kept in those buildings in Part I. My Grandmother rasised me and my siblings and when she came back from visiting my Mom when she could get a relative to take her up there from just outside of Savannah where we lived, my Grandmother smelled like Pinesol. To this day I can't stand that smell. My Grandmother was very distraught over the condidtions then and said animals were housed more humanely...this was 1963 - 1966. Grandma did finally get my Mom released and brought her home, but she was a zombie from medications. I, for one am glad to see these buildings decline because they make better wildlife sanctuaries that human sanitoriums.
You guy's do a great job of all the buildings. But you should were respirators. All the dust your kicking up not clean air. In Connecticut there are twin blogs like the one you just showed!
Can someone please explain to my why most Urbex creeps me out but Proper People somehow manage to keep me interested but also provide calming content? IDK if it’s the crunchy steps or how they don’t shout but it’s almost an ASMR affect? Perfect way to decompress at the end of the day.
I have always admired the craftsmanship in the old Kirkbride (sp?) style buildings. The window lintels, the proportions, the attempt to provide light and air to those not allowed to leave the wards. My grandfather and grandmother met at Pilgrim Psych in NY in the late 1930s. She was a nurse and he was an electrician. I spent many afternoons there and at Kings Park shooting the building from the exterior. I later photographed many of the interiors of the Pilgrim buildings for my BFA program, which is when I learned of my personal connection to the place. The morgue still had the "Let conversation cease, let laughter flee..." on the wall in front of the amazing wall of 2 sided cabinets.
My favorite part was exploring the space above the wards and seeing the massive timbers and steel beams that make up the structure. Some of the wood beams were 16x16x30' beautiful old growth that has likely hardened to almost steel strength.
So fascinating how these psychiatric campuses were designed, how additions were made, and updates were installed. Especially love the 1940s-50s chest height tiling.
I really appreciate just how much care you have for these old buildings. You do this for the exploration and to learn about the buildings and history of the places you go. Too many people go in and don't respect the building all because it's been abandoned and "nobody cares" but there's just too much history in so many of these places that's important to learn about.
What a beautiful building. It never stops amazing me the money and artistry that went into the design of these old structures. Thank you, Bryan for shooting the railing up close. I always look forward to watching the newest installment when you guys upload. Thanks again.
There is ALOT of dark history with this place, At one point the were so short staffed they were pulling patients to be caretakers. I cannot even begin to fathom some of the atrocities that have taken place here. I am from GA and have also explored the site. Its quite incredible. Good job and TY for respecting the facility. I would love to see this place saved and put on a historic registry
My favorite part about historic buildings like this and many others is that I have to wonder what it would've been like to be a fly on the wall and experience its history first hand
I have literally spent all my free time the past five days watching exclusively your channel. Fascinating, fun and well put together videos. This was the rabbit hole I've been looking for. You guys rock!
Loved the plants that cascaded across the ceiling, and the "flowerpot" sinks. So crazy how you could turn around from a relatively intact hallway to see trees growing out of the ground.
I live in Milledgeville GA. People come from all over to go inside the buildings. Its always creepy to drive by. I have always heard that they closed the buildings down due to asbestos, and loss of funding.
@Allen Morris, Both reasons are valid, with the lack of funding being foremost. Nationwide the emptying of mental hospitals was in full swing by the '70's. More locally based facilities were thought preferable. The introduction of more effective medications made this option more feasible.
@@Naturephile55 Psychiatric asylums of this type were used until the late 1970s and 1980s with the advent of new psychiatric drugs and community mental health centers.
I was at Harley Branch living on Lake Sinclair and working midnight shift back in 1976and ‘77.I knew every hiding place there was at Plant Branch.Caught some big fish there where the discharge was for the cooling water recycling. I also remember the Cellar in downtown Milledgeville,it had the steep stairs going down into the bar off the street.I got memories of the place,but it’s gone now.Just a bare flat spot next to the lake.
I love the older intact light fixtures. Thank you for highlighting those. Even the remaining flourescent eggcrate and bowl fixtures on the breezeway are cool.
It's a homeless communities dream to sleep in a building like that, that's what the communities need to do is take a portion of these buildings and turn them into apartments for low income and homeless people
The problem is the expense, if only they could register all of these outbuildings like the main office, it would at least save them form the wrecking ball
I had a professor who did her internship there. She said that there were patients in beds drugged up as far as the eye could see. Sounded pretty depressing. She worked somewhere else there and there was a type of skitso who would remain frozen like a statue. She said you weren't supposed to touch them when they were like that. Someone did one time and the patient tore the place up.
Thank you for the awesome coverage on this place. I’m from GA- not far from here- and have been obsessed with this place for years. My Great Uncle was actually sent to this asylum back in the day due to him being an alcoholic. He actually died there and never made it back home. Always grew up hearing many stories about this place so it’s crazy to finally see the inside of it.
I am from Georgia, as a child you grow up hearing about the hospital in Milledgeville, I knew some people that had been sent there it is crazy to see it now.
You guys never cease to amaze. It's not just the places you visit, it is the whole production: music, cuts, comments... just wow. You put every "lame stream" media outlet to shame. Thank you so much for sharing!
I love what you guys do. You risk your lives to give everyone such interesting show and intimation. I'll always be a fan. Keep up the good work. Be safe and protect yourselves. Thank you.
And Kemp- Governor of Georgia just approved the tearing down of this piece of history. So sad. The buildings are beyond repair, asbestos etc. but having toured this huge campus, grown up in Georgia, plus reading the history of this hospital, just hate to see it all go. It is a very fascinating place, eerie and yet its history will forever live. Just saddens me to not have it recognized as a piece of history. Scheduled to be demolished soon; they have already fenced it.
News is a developer is planning to close a deal with the GDOBH to buy the Jones, Green, and Walker buildings and restore them for use as either housing or community centers. So maybe not all is lost.
I often wondered if you guys would ever make it to this place. Everyone in Georgia never called it the Central State Hospital. They just called it Milledgeville. There were other places around but if you went down there, people thought you wouldn't be coming back. The place has quite a history. There are documentaries on youtube about it.
13:25 I used a drinking fountain just like that one in middle school! Really wish you could have gotten into the tower on the last building. Thank you for the tour through history.
I absolutely have to command you guys about your musical introduction. It's brillant. I think it's the best on RUclips. Yes, it's that good!! It advertise your channel and specificaly your subject in such a precise yet broad way. Love the way it's driven in it's intensity, yet leaving lots of room, an eerie feeling connected with the rhythm that ends up in an underground dark feedback. It leaves you suspended, wondering what in store your next adventure will make us discovers. Freaking loving it!!!
When you were exploring the building with the most decay there was a crow cawing in the background, but then I heard another one at a similar volume and it seemed like outside my window, so I had to pause the video and figure out where the crow sounds were coming from. Really confused me for a second! They were both on the video and in my backyard at the same time😆lol Thanks for the video!👍
Milledgeville is my hometown! Amazing footage of the inside that we never get to see! Hopefully you didn’t get in too much trouble! Thanks for the awesome videos
That was incredible! Thanks for sharing! Such beauty in the decay. My heart hurt for those people when you showed the tooth brushes.. the pain and sorrow throughout in such a beautiful structure.
Paint supplied by duluxe guaranteed to never peal crack or flake ha ha just like new improved washing powder for the whole of my lifetime thanks again for posting
It's so sad that we as a society decided the people who would've been housed and cared for in these buildings were better off on the streets of our cities.
They decided people didn't need to be in those hospitals bc it was cheaper just to give these people meds and it was up to them to make sure they took their meds
How were they treated by underpaid, possibly undertrained state workers, though? There are records of horrible abuse in many of these asylums. I'm not saying they'd be better off on the streets, at all. There must be some other way.
Yes. They use the tunnels for very evil reasons. Trust me, you don't want to know. My grandfather Dr. Delgado was the president of this asylum back in the day where he used the patient for mk ultra trauma based mind control programming.
@@gator6764exactly. All lead back to the Steam plant. It would just be crazy to touch ones of those radiators in the hall and know it connects all the way back to another in some old ward, bathroom, or closet in some forgotten building on campus
That looks like a depressing place to have been confined to, even on the first day it was in use. I am an architectural enthusiast but something about this one hit me I bet that was a dry time having to call that where you were at.
The rooms with the serving through the door was probably where the dangerous residents were kept. They were probably so hostile that they could not be allowed out in the general population.
Fantastic explore lads. Well done! The crunch, crunch, crunch, sound underfoot, with headphones on was choice! And quite the collection of funky doors.🚪🪑🚽🪟
Always enjoyed your videos and style of delivery. It's really nice to have peaceful reflection of what is now at each location and your comments on what things used to be when you find them. The music often reminds me of Silent Hill too so that helps just a little more. XD Keep up the great work of documenting these places before they're too far gone!
hi to the proper pepole from Australia thanks for the great video love the work that you do and the old mental hospital that you did was fantastic I cant figure out why they let a beautiful old building like that just get the way it is looking any way looking forward to seeing the video keep up this fantastic explore
looks like the whitehouse got a spray tan. absolutely gorgeous building, the brickwork still seems in good shape, hopefully this one can be fixed up, would hate to see it demolished.
The grocery store I work at was remodeled 10 years ago. The whole front of the store used to be windows. All walled in now. They removed the drop ceiling too.
Would love to see you guys come up here to the New England area...I am in New Hampshire...the front of the last building looks exactly like a junior high school in my hometown....Nashua , NH
Kirkbride mental Institute campus we're always connected by a tunnel from building to building. It was his style to do that. I would have loved to have seen some of the tunnel Network
My aunt meemee would write check after check then go get her battery’s recharged there at milledgeville (central state hospital electric shock therapy) back then they didn’t repo the shit you bought She outsmarted the system she wasn’t really crazy
Beautiful. I love your respect for the buildings and the artistry at play with the camera work, you truly capture the best shots! I hope you can come back in the summer to explore some of the other buildings in their green, plant filled glory
I hope someday someone does something with these buildings. They’re so beautiful and while they are really far gone, they’re still mostly salvageable. It would take a lot of time and money but I think it could be possible to restore them to their pre 70s condition. It’s unlikely though, especially considering how bad some of the vandalism and water damage is.
My grandfather Dr. Jose Delgado was the president of central state asylum back in the day. He used the patients for mk ultra trauma based mind control programming. It truly boggles my mind how he got away with genocide. He is still alive at the age of 95 living in Milledgeville GA.
@@gator6764 I found some of his paperwork from the asylum hidden in my grandmother's garage from the 70s along with court documents. He got away with Louis Veal's murder because the judge was a freemason brother and friend of his. Some of the paperwork I found was burned . I believe he kept the documents I came across as a 🏆 when they burned all the evidence.
I wouldn’t call it genocide, your grandfather just did what all other institutions were doing at the time. Mental illness was not understood well, and several ‘creative’ treatments were performed in order to try to help people. At the time consensual agreements in medical institutions weren’t developed yet and doctors could assume control as the patient was not capable to otherwise. We see it bad now, but it was the norm back then.
This is amazing!!! My favorite abandoned place ever!! I had just finished watching another one of your videos when this one was recommended and I audibly gasped in excitement. Thank you!

Window makers are in bed with the electric companies.
@@graciegj63 *What about those "window lickers"?* There's a lot of them around as well, sad to say.
Tall ceilings for heat to rise, no A/C in the old days
We ought to learn from them. Natural light is sorely missed in the modern world.
The high R values of big windows are expensive. Plus it also people follow windows trends.
My dad says in the days before air conditioning you could hear the patients inside wailing from the road.
Break your heart, so sad.
That’s kinda creepy
Now they are all in our streets and Subways attacking people.

this should totally be a series on netflix or even other platforms, great vids guys.

hi to the proper pepole from Australia thanks for the great video love the work that you do and the old mental hospital that you did was fantastic I cant figure out why they let a beautiful old building like that just get the way it is looking any way looking forward to seeing the video keep up this fantastic explore
Beautiful site guys! The trees inside & plants growing in the sinks were a treasure to see!
Love those old big buildings with the natural decay
I missed last week's episode and now I can watch one after another. 🥳
Watched every single videos you guys made, loved watching all of them! Amazing work like always! 👏
Enjoyed this mini series. I’m surprised this complex doesn’t have steam tunnels
It does. There’s a Steam plant and even though this building is from 1884, there is no local boiler it is tied to the campus steam line.
looks like the whitehouse got a spray tan. absolutely gorgeous building, the brickwork still seems in good shape, hopefully this one can be fixed up, would hate to see it demolished.
The grocery store I work at was remodeled 10 years ago. The whole front of the store used to be windows. All walled in now. They removed the drop ceiling too.
Thank you. So enjoy.
Hey guys. I'm always glad to watch another one of your guys videos. and in HD to boot. I wish you guys where my brothers 👍
Would love to see you guys come up here to the New England area...I am in New Hampshire...the front of the last building looks exactly like a junior high school in my hometown....Nashua , NH
5:16 that chair was just chilling till someone busted it up...😎😂
Kirkbride mental Institute campus we're always connected by a tunnel from building to building. It was his style to do that. I would have loved to have seen some of the tunnel Network
Such an old beautiful building. So much to see and hear from the old gal. Great vid guys. 🐸
16:17 reminds me of the NL Laboratory where the hallways had trees growing
Nice job guys. Tagging along on your adventures is so enjoyable!
My aunt meemee would write check after check then go get her battery’s recharged there at milledgeville (central state hospital electric shock therapy) back then they didn’t repo the shit you bought
She outsmarted the system she wasn’t really crazy
Beautiful. I love your respect for the buildings and the artistry at play with the camera work, you truly capture the best shots! I hope you can come back in the summer to explore some of the other buildings in their green, plant filled glory
I hope someday someone does something with these buildings. They’re so beautiful and while they are really far gone, they’re still mostly salvageable. It would take a lot of time and money but I think it could be possible to restore them to their pre 70s condition. It’s unlikely though, especially considering how bad some of the vandalism and water damage is.
Always love this big buildings to explore
Another great exploration ❤great job guys!
My grandfather Dr. Jose Delgado was the president of central state asylum back in the day. He used the patients for mk ultra trauma based mind control programming. It truly boggles my mind how he got away with genocide. He is still alive at the age of 95 living in Milledgeville GA.
there are papers with his signature in the jones building and i think i have a few papers in my collection
@@gator6764 I found some of his paperwork from the asylum hidden in my grandmother's garage from the 70s along with court documents. He got away with Louis Veal's murder because the judge was a freemason brother and friend of his. Some of the paperwork I found was burned . I believe he kept the documents I came across as a 🏆 when they burned all the evidence.
I wouldn’t call it genocide, your grandfather just did what all other institutions were doing at the time. Mental illness was not understood well, and several ‘creative’ treatments were performed in order to try to help people. At the time consensual agreements in medical institutions weren’t developed yet and doctors could assume control as the patient was not capable to otherwise. We see it bad now, but it was the norm back then.
Always excellent quality of urbex.
This is amazing!!! My favorite abandoned place ever!! I had just finished watching another one of your videos when this one was recommended and I audibly gasped in excitement. Thank you!
the Walker Building and the Greene Building; Just this week, it was posted that these are finally going to come down, along with the Jones Building.
Great you guys are covering and documenting these historic buildings. They are slated to be torn down soon.
