We look at the field where the original Burbank Hospital once stood, even after the 50's/60's, and 1976 additions were put on. In 1999, plans were to shrink and move services to Leominster Hospital, so the old portion was moved out, and in the early aughts (2000's), ultimately demolished. You can see newer walls that look out of place, where the old buildings met the new.
For the Elevator Geeks that sub, I also point out where an old Otis elevator, with manual doors and scissor-gate was, since there was an elevator-sized pit still in the ground, too shallow to see on camera, evident in-person.
