Originally called the New Jersey Sanitarium for Tuberculosis Diseases, this hospital eventually became the Glen Gardner Sanitarium, and lastly, Hagedorn Psychiatric Hospital. It opened in 1907 to treat tuberculosis before branching out to other diseases, briefly leading to the name change of the New Jersey Hospital for Chest Diseases. In 1977 it became a psychiatric hospital and was used that way until its closure in 2012. Parts of the campus are still active.
