yaggy9 | Final Asylum: The Closing of Philadelphia State Hospital (Part 1) [a.k.a. Byberry] @yaggy9 | Uploaded December 2011 | Updated October 2024, 23 minutes ago.
This 40 minute video is an educational documentary chronicling the life and closure of Philadelphia State Hospital, a place known to most as simply "Byberry." I briefly had my hands on this videotape, which came from an unknown archive, so rather than ask questions, I captured it into the PC. I believe it was made in 1990, just after the hospital closed and they had placed all the existing patients. Visit the following website for the most complete collection of information on PSH/Byberry, from beginning to end and its afterlife as an explorer's paradise: theduke81.tripod.com
