32 Photos Of An Abandoned Hospital In Detroit

 When driving through Detroit, you’ll see many abandoned buildings, but this abandoned hospital caught the eye of photographer Robert Johnson. This building was originally constructed as the Southwest Detroit Hospital. It closed its doors in 1993, and then was sold to an area businessman named Harley K. Brown. Brown planned on turning it into the United Community Hospital. Unfortunately, after he drove the hospital into the ground when he tried to advance his boxing promotion career, this hospital took its biggest hit. It has been completely abandoned for 9 years now, but luckily Robert Johnson decided to go inside and see what interesting things he could find.
Robert Johnson was in Detroit for 5 days, documenting a variety of abandoned buildings. But this one caught his attention the most, so he decided to explore.

Being vacant for 9 years, it looked like some of Detroit’s homeless population had started to call this abandoned hospital home.
