Today we took a tour of Waverly Hill Sanatarium. It is located in Louisville, Kentucky and was originally created to house tuberculosis patients. It has been closed for many years, and the current owners want to eventually turn it into a hotel. Based on what I saw during our tour, I think the hotel is a long ways off, if it ever happens.
I booked our two-hour, daytime, historical tour online. Our tour was to start at 2:00. The ticket info said to arrive by 1:45. We got there a little early and were told to wait at the gate; someone would come down to let us all in soon. More cars continued to arrive, with everyone just sitting outside the gate. Eventually, people got out of their cars and congregated near the gate.
