The Rochester Insane Asylum, officially known as the New York State Lunatic Asylum at Rochester, was closed in 1973. This facility, which opened in 1858, was one of the first state-run asylums in the United States. Its closure was part of a broader movement towards deinstitutionalization in mental health care. After its closure, the building was repurposed for other uses, including housing and community services.
