My time at the Glenwood State Hospital

The Glenwood Resource Center started out as the Iowa Institution for Feebleminded Children. The facility was closed in 2024 with the official decommissioning of services such as water, steam, electric and gas happening on June 30th of 2025. I was granted access by the Glenwood Redevelopment Company to document the facility as it was left and before renovation starts.

Please feel free to share my work!
