- We explore the abandoned Allentown State Hospital built in 1913 it held over 2000 patients during its heyday in 1950. The hospital closed in 2010 and I have sat vacant ever since! Many explorers have tried to enter this building but with 24 hour security for the last 10 years it has been nearly impossible! Join us as we see what’s left inside this massive piece of history! part one! Make sure you like and subscribe share this link with a friend and as always stay safe my friends!
Awesome video!!! I can’t believe they tore all these magnificent and powerful buildings down.... such a disgrace to history. We should keep these buildings standing as a reminder of how things used to be.
The local community did their best to save Allentown I think it was the states plan to let it sit there and rot until it was in the state it was in then get rid of it without the preservation! Definitely sad to see them go! The architecture of the day was spectacular and craftsmanship excellent allowing it to last over 100 years!
Cool spot fr
Thanks man! One of the great ones sad to see it go!
Great explore, nicely filmed and edited! Covered ALOT of the spaces, really enjoyed this one! 🏨
Thank you so much I enjoyed the support

My husband and I worked there till it closed he was in maintenance and I worked in the kitchen great video it was a great place to work many great memories there thanks again for a great video
I’m glad you enjoyed it and thank you very much it was certainly a great place to explore lots of history
New subscriber here. Awesome explore. Very cool place to explore. Those buildings are beautiful. So much history there good and bad. Nice looking hardwood floors.
That’s for sure lots of history I had an aunt that was a patient here way back
When they closed these hospitals The mentally ill had no place to go but on the streets That's why we have so many homeless They need to reopen them and start getting these people help Many are so incapable of taking care of themselves due to drugs The suicide rate is up There wasn't any homeless much before they closed all of these mental hospitals They need to reopen them and have a place for the mentally ill to go to get real help 😧👍✝️
Yes you speak the truth! I have seen old movies of long island after they closed Kings Park and Central is slip how many people standing on the streets with nothing to do and no support system for them after they had been released and stopped taking their meds! America tries to take care of the rest of the world will not taking care of their own
19:52 Love it
The hallway from the movie! I have some great pictures from there
Awesome video my team was recently there the place is a lot more gutted than your video you showed a few different views the place is so massive you could explore for days excellent work I'm going to subscribe. Hermicidal J .( xplorer llttf)
I appreciate the support thank you very much yes it was going down quick the demolition team it was hard at work
You said there was a part 2 of Allentown State Hospital. I cant find it on your page.
They could of save this beautiful building, Allentown school district has so many kids they don't know we're 2 put them. They could of used this as a high school. But let's tear history down!😡😡
Was there in the summer and didn't make it through the whole thing. 😕 walked out, tried to get by a construction worker.. didn't go well. But we didn't get in trouble.
Yep there were lots of guys working in there for sure and I know they get sketched out by visitors! Was glad to of gotten in early while the lights were still on before the actual demolition started! And thank you for the comment 🙏🏽
Security video exploration where exactly is the morgue located. I wanna ask the guys tearing it down for an item.
In the medical services building building off to the right in the front of the main hospital
What a crime to tear down such a place that could easily have been converted to affordable housing etc for people. I'm sure what it would have cost to get rid of the lead paint and asbestos that was probably in there wouldn't have been cheap but still it's sad to just write it off like they did.
ALL of Allentown State Hospital was raized a few years ago. At a cost to the tax payer of THIRTEEN MILLION DOLLARS.
It's TWO HUNDRED acres was then sold to a private concern for only FIVE MILLION DOLLARS. That's TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS an ACRE! Considering the cost of land, that was quite a "steal."
Did the whole hospital have power? Or just parts of it.
Check out 3:17 we were there as early explorers and the power was still on to most of the building!
is it completely gone now?
The main Hospital is now gone completely! And they are working on the rest of the property now! Some smaller buildings and the administration building are being demolished at this time!
