Metropolitan State Hospital
Metropolitan State Hospital, National Register of Historic Places hospital complex in Waltham, United States.
The Metropolitan State Hospital campus spans across 346 acres, featuring multiple buildings constructed in Colonial Revival architectural style.
Established in 1927, the facility operated as a mental health institution until 1992, treating up to 2,000 patients during its peak operation period.
The hospital grounds, designed by the Olmsted Brothers, reflect the early 20th century approach to mental health treatment through architectural and landscape planning.
The former hospital grounds now include residential developments and walking trails that connect to local conservation areas.
The facility maintained the Gaebler Children's Center, which specialized in treating youth with mental health conditions.
