Recent status | Demolished |
Location # | 9601 |
This building has been empty for a while. A new hospital has been built. Plans to demolish this one are active, the city just needs more funding. There is still power on in the building and possible silent alarms. Building is sealed up tight.
Added by The Secret Lens - Opened in 1954, Sarnia General Hospital was built to replace the existing building on site built in 1896. The 7 storey hospital would sit vacant from 2011 until its demolition in 2018. Once a busy home to doctors and healthcare workers had now become a decaying vandalized mess. A beautiful, disgusting, rotting mess. I absolutely loved the time I spent here. Such an amazing structure with so much to see. Glad I managed to visit 3 times before the demolition took place. You can definitely tell it will be missed by many as shown by the writings on the walls, myself included.

Summer 2017, The site has been sold to a local developer, demolition may start soon, I don't know what they will use maybe a wrecking ball. Since the site was abandoned break in's were regular by vandals and scrappers, several fires were also set, the police have made a lot of arrests. The interior of the main building is trashed, in fact the police and fire dept. said they would not enter the building unless it was a dire emergency.
Thanks for the update VWbill, now we have a better shot of cracking this one!
Summer 2015, after the city of Sarnia backed out of a developers offer to buy the General site, Bluewater Health announced it would no longer pay for up keep and maintenance of the site and pulled the plug on it. They cut off the power and are no longer performing any maintenance, the site is now essentially abandoned. It is still locked and boarded up and posted no trespassing.
Still no entry as of June 2015, hopefully somebody can keep an eye on this one.
I agree if its gonna be demo'd leave it up and hopefully someone can crack it. Maybe i have bad timing when i've checked it out.
It can be deleted if you see fit :) I have been there several times myself and have never ran into anybody yet, thought it was a neat location. I know the city plans for demolition eventually, so I wanted to throw it up before hand.
This is still kinda active. I've been here numerous times and ran into security cars and other vehicles. I wouldn't have added it yet myself.
