Over the last twenty years, NYC has been hit hard by hospital closures. These closures have lead to a shoestring system that could not meet the strain of the Covid-19 Pandemic of 2020. This page will serve as a catalog of nearly all the hospitals and health care facilities that were abandoned in the NYC area. The sheer volume of posts that will fill this section will serve to highlight the absolute depth of this problem, and the various ways it cumulated into it's present barely functional system. This entire section of this website is dedicated to the over 20k New Yorkers who passed away during this pandemic.

It’s a warm summer night and we’re waiting, lurking in the dark along the shore of Roosevelt Island. Tonight we’ve got a crew 6 deep with a single target: the old Goldwater Hospital on Roosevelt Island. One of dozens of NYC area hospitals to have ended up on our abandoned hit list.
Sea View Hospital Children’s Ward is a building I’ve been exploring for over 15 years now. That makes it a very rare breed. Offhand I’m hard pressed to think of any substantially sized abandoned buildings within NYC City Limits that have remained in a state of abandonment for so long.
