Indiana State Sanatorium walk through the property Part 2

The Indiana State Sanatorium (1909-1968), also known as the "Indiana Tuberculosis Hospital", and formerly the Lee Alan Bryant Healthcare Facility (1978-2012), was a state-run institution designated for the treatment and care of Tuberculosis patients located in Rockville, Indiana. The facility was successful in its treatment of the disease, and the overall mortality rate decreased. The Sanatorium was shuttered in 1968 due to the low number of patients. In the mid-1970s, private investors proposed to convert the space into a nursing home. The facility now known as Lee Alan Bryant was opened in 1978, and gained a negative reputation due to understaffing which resulted the facility to be closed by the state in 2011. The property sat vacant for a decade before being purchased in December of 2020. The new owner hopes to reopen it as a mix-use facility.
