Foxboro State Hospital
Foxborough State Hospital is a historic hospital building at the junction of Chestnut and Main Streets in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
The hospital was built in 1889 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
Redevelopment of the hospital property began in 2005, with one of the largest buildings being torn down to make way for a shopping plaza. As of mid-2009, the plaza is complete, the main building has been transformed into luxury condominiums, and other structures have been renovated and made into single and multiple-family housing. However, many buildings were razed to make way for homes or open land, and a few still remain standing and unused, such as the former hospital auditorium.
