Curbed NY has a look inside Roosevelt Island's spooky Goldwater Hospital in NYC, which is currently in the midst of demolition. Built in 1939 as the Welfare Hospital for Chronic Disease, the 900,000-square-foot, 2,106-bed institution was designed to aid therapy—with an emphasis on natural light and outdoor space. Check out the patient's quarters, nurse stations, and morgue pre-wrecking ball, right this way. [Curbed NY]
