Evergreen State Village

This property began as a state village for feeble-minded women with construction beginning in 1914. The women were to be of "child-bearing" age only which came to be between 16 and 45 years old. The self-sustaining village was on 230 acres of land and housed an average of 500 women. The name changed to a state school and hospital when it was decided that male patients would be seen in 1969. The institution closed in 1998 as it struggled with the patient population. Today the hospital sits abandoned with various booby traps rigged to do harm on trespassers.
