My girlfriend was telling me about the old Whitby psychiatric hospital. She went there before 90% of it got demolished. Has anyone been there recently? If so, is it worth the trip to see what's left of it? If yes then I'll definitely post pictures after a trip tonight =).

It's pretty much gone now, the new buildings are all there. The last time I visited the property around a year ago, only one building still remained, it's surely gone now.

We went there recently; there are two cottages left. The basements are flooded.

This is what the surrounding area looks like:



I didn't even bother to get good shots of the buildings; I was so underwhelmed.

Correction: one cottage and one of the nurses' buildings is left ; P

Definitely not worth the trip, but if you're passing by, take a swing - you have to go to the Western edge of the Northern part of the new facility to find the buildings. There is an alarming 'buzzing' noise coming from the flooded cottage. The 'bee' kind.

Went by last night with a friend. We got up to the cottage or the nurses building don't know which one it was. We took a look inside the hole at the front door and there was only empty white rooms. We did not breach the hole because there was nothing interesting in the place. We took off and headed back to our car and when we were 1 foot from the car another car was flashing it's headlights at us so we just took off. This could have been a security car but there was no way to tell if it was.

No pictures as it's not as interesting as it was when everything was there before!

damn Jono..

the saturation is so high I thought the first shot was LEGO bricks at first and I thought to myself "when the hell did they have that there??"

ahahhah


if you went into the basements and hopped the brick walls to the north they led to secret parts of the basement.. some places untouched and containing ww2 artifacts..

maybe the tunnels are still worth checking out

I'm pretty sure that they filled the tunnels in... Even if the tunnels were still accesible, they would not be tunnels because the buildings are 90% torn down and the tunnels would be wide open...

It will probably have a tunnel under it still

LOL Lord, We were like ninja's we went right up to the old nurses building came out fine but they must have seen us on camera and sent a car over to the old buildings because he had his headlights flashing on us as we just made it to the car and got out of there. They are getting stricter on people going over to look at the old buildings.

LOL I was not a burly looking nurse as for the time of day it was around 1 am so no patients were out at that time of the morning, I think that's why we almost got caught, like I said we were at my car by the time the headlights flashed there bulbs at me. Nothing came out of it so we are both ok and to tell u the truth there's nothing left in those buildings now should have gone to them when they were all standing but I did not get into UE until last year!

Security seems to be very tight around there. Its been twice now they have told me to leave. Its almost like they are waiting on someone to enter...

To be honest, I don't have much respect for them. I remember about two winters ago, security came out, and told me that I can't take photos of the buildings. I was outside the fence, so I felt there was no problem. I asked him why, and he gave me a very little response. He kept trying to shoo me away from the property.

If you can't beat them, shoot them!

What's with the name change? Whitby Mental Health Centre is now Ontario Shores Centre For Mental Health Services. Apparently, its been renamed to better reflect the hospital's expanded mandate, role and progression into future directions.

Whitby Psychiatric Hospital (August 1913-May 1995)
Whitby Mental Health Centre (April 1996-June 2009)
Ontario Shores Centre For Mental Health Sciences (June 2009-???)

It's all about taking away the stigma of the old days when they referred to places likes this as "mental asylums". You gotta admit, saying "they took me to Ontario Shores" sounds almost like a resort vacation compared to "they locked me in a cold, dark dungeon at the mental asylum".
