ABANDONED Rochester Psychiatric Hospital
Exploring the Abandoned Rochester Psychiatric Hospital | Found the Morgue
This now abandoned psychiatric hospital known as Terrence Tower was built in the late 1950s, finally opening its doors in 1959. The facility housed over 1,000 beds, and patients of varying mental disabilities. People with anything from mild to extreme issues were admitted and locked away somewhere within its 16 stories.

Each floor held a different department, with the 5th floor housing the criminally insane ward, and a general hospital split between the 13th and 14th floors. A morgue and lab were in the basement.
The 16-story Terrence Building was once heralded as a “tower of hope” for the mentally ill. Today the vacant structure looms over the Rochester Psychiatric Center campus like a nightmare.

The Elmwood psych center campus was originally constructed as the Rochester State Hospital. This state-run mental hospital took over responsibilities from the Monroe County Insane Asylum in 1891. The Terrence Building was opened in 1959 and housed over 1,000 beds until 1995 when the last patients were moved to newer facilities elsewhere on the campus.
Terrence Tower has now sat abandoned and decaying since 1995, but as of 2019 there are plans for redevelopment – a plan that is estimated to cost upwards of $32 million. There are plans to remove asbestos from the building, demolish the structure and redevelop the 30-acre site with placement of a 110-room hotel, commercial buildings, apartment and more.
