I saw it while riding through town during a visit in 2009 (my brother used to live down there). Anybody know if it's still standing and/or have photos of it?

It was a psychiatric hospital. http://abandonedpl...l.com/1634572.html It's been renovated into a swanky hotel. Call me paranoid, but I wouldn't want to spend a night there. If nothing else, I'd creep myself out thinking of all the people who once suffered within its walls. http://www.hotelparqcentral.com/ "The destruction of the past is perhaps the greatest of all crimes." -Simone Weil Katharsys  Location: Las Vegas, NV Gender: Female  |  Re: Abandoned hospital in Albuquerque <Reply # 2 on 1/8/2014 10:05 PM >   Posted by iliamo1986 I suppose I could have googled it first.

The other thing I see a lot is the conversion of these types of locations into senior living centers. Gah!! I wouldn't want to send a family member, or anyone else for that matter, to live at someplace like Linda Vista. Maybe it's just me....... ;) http://www.flickr.com/photos/katharsys/ iliamo1986  Location: Central Iowa Gender: Female  |  Re: Abandoned hospital in Albuquerque <Reply # 3 on 1/13/2014 2:14 PM >   Posted by Katharsys I feel you on that.

It was abandoned years ago and later became a popular place for film makers, etc to shoot movies, shows, music videos, do paranormal investigations, blah blah blah. JUST the type of place to send your aging parents to live, right? There's TONS of info on the place online.......I don't know how much of it is true, but this is what the location looks like now. "historic location" indeed ;) http://www.lindavistaseniorapts.com/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/katharsys/ Jonsered  Location: Back in New Mexico where I belong Gender: Male Dressed for a scarecrow ball.........  |  |  |  Re: Abandoned hospital in Albuquerque <Reply # 5 on 1/14/2014 5:48 AM >   Damn, that ABQ site was in a fairly gnarly area. Wonder what it took to get rid of the gang presence? I have changed my personal exploring ethics code. From now on it will be: "Take only aimed shots, leave only hobo corpses." Copper scrappers, meth heads and homeless beware. The Jonsered cometh among you, bringing fear and dread.

I'm shocked it's a hotel (I remember it being an active asylum)!

I'm from the southern part of NM. Is this the South Valley place with all the latino gang tags and the bikers lounging about?

Also, secondsies or thirdsies or fourthsies on the "that place would give me the willies as a hotel" business. input: bacon | output: fiction UER Forum > Archived US: Four Corners > Abandoned hospital in Albuquerque (Viewed 422 times) All content and images copyright © 2002-2024 UER.CA and respective creators.
