Sunset Haven IL

Submitted Pictures

I thought you might want to know of another place of abandonment located in the city of Carbondale, home of the Southern Illinois University Salukis.

Known as "the old insane asylum" by those who don't know better, there's a building sitting on campus that used to be called Sunset Haven; it was originally a poor house/farm and later converted into a nursing home before being shut down in the late '50s. 

I recently took a few pictures and did a story on the place for the college I attend (John A. Logan College, about 15 miles east of Carbondale), and was wondering that if you might want some additional content on the Illinois page.

I DON'T GIVE OUT LOCATIONS.  I DON'T KNOW IF THE BUILDINGS ARE FOR SALE.  I DON'T KNOW IF THE BUILDINGS ARE STILL STANDING.
