All that remains are a few small vestiges of the former campus (gazebo, stairway, etc) and the front outer walls of the Kirkbride administration building, aka "front center" as well as the walls of 2 wings. An entirely new / modern structure was constructed inside of this remaining facade section, and the roof that caps it all is simplified. The basements were filled in. The interior design is very plain and does not mirror the styling of the original Kirkbride, so this was really not considered a preservatory project. Land now occupied by an apartment / condominium community.  Basic Information Type: Building Status: Repurposed Accessibility: Easy Recommendation: forget it  Physical Information Address 450 Maple St. Danvers, Massachusetts United States Owner: Avalon Bay Communities See a map of this location  Hazards  Interesting Features Session 9 (a movie) was filmed there, as well as "Home Before Dark".
