Former Reid Hospital Campus In Richmond Deteriorates

At the old hospital campus, windows have little glass left and floors have been weakened by water damage. The interior has been marked by fires, and the air contains contaminants including asbestos. The Palladium-Item (http://pinews.co/1XWsFlX ) reports people are drawn to the old campus, including some who say they're looking for ghosts and spirits or a spot for graffiti. On April 18, a fire burned a covered porch of part of the former hospital, and firefighters went inside to check for people.
