So glad I found your video of G. Pierce Wood Memorial Hospital. Saw the house (0:59) I lived with my family from 1975-80. This was the area where medical staff with their families lived. Interesting time growing up on the grounds of a state mental hospital in the middle of nowhere (7 miles SE of Arcadia on SR 31). Brought back some good memories of growing up there. Thank you!

It's was called Carlstrom Field and was used to train WW II Pilots (mostly British) 23 british pilots crashed there. Also in 1987 for the 70th anniversary of the field opening they had a fly in air show. They mowed a grass air strip for the event. During the air show there was a crash and 1 guy died. The mental hospital opened in 1947, it was called the G pierce Wood memorial hospital. It closed in 2002

Rich I think so, It sure looks like one of facilities used during that time to do those horrible experiments

This place is an old air field that later became a mental hospital, it was closed in the late nineties then became a juvenile offender prison. I worked at the hospital in 1989 and 1990. The property had staff housing, classrooms, a church and other buildings. The property was sold in 2015 and is being renovated by the new owner. I recently went there and talked to the owner to see if I could look around but was told no one was allowed on the site. A fence was recently put up and yes there is security on site.

cliffedward if people just move in and they keep up the place they can own it. look it up. how to take abandoned property.

I live in Clearwater over by Tampa Bay. When People think of FL they think Miami or Disney. They don't realize that mostly only the coast of the State is occupied. The whole center of the State is basically...well...nothing. This is completely feasible that there would be a abandoned town out there. The only thing is it looks like it hasn't been abandoned long. :/

I used to be a patient there for times I went there sure would like to see the old ground again

you can't believe everything u see lmfao this city is in my County ppl live here. that's why the grass are cut. it has many abandoned places but ppl live in some of these ran down houses and own some of the rundown business. also many parts of Arcadia fl have beautiful homes.

It's a mental hospital and it's located in Florida, Arcadia your welcome

This ghost town would be perfect for shooting an episode of the walking dead

It won't be destroyed it is protected by urbanex ninja 100's on bicycle ... besides now that it's sold and guarded by paramilitary with high capacity magazine weapons. You'd have to hit it from the air (field) with fighter jets in order to destroy it. Either that or crash the fence with armored vehicle(s). You couldn't do it with a bicycle and a go pro camera. You'd be killed or captured. Instead it will be bulldozed and destroyed by commercialization.

They have caretakers there.

This is interesting. A few things caught my eye. 1. the grass is pretty short in most places. 2. the paint is still pretty bright and unchipped, from what I could see. 3. there's no graffiti anywhere. I would expect an abandoned place like this to be covered in paint by urban explorers. whatever happened here, it's either in a place that's so well hidden nobody's found it yet, or it hasn't been abandoned for long.

Hey guys, thanks for all the comments. Just an update, this place has been bought (that explains the grass) and is now entirely fenced off. There is also 24/7 security, and they have started to re-purpose some of the buildings since this video was shot. So for anyone wanting to visit, you either need to be urbex ninja level 100 or just scratch it off your list all together. There are still some other really doable spots in Florida as seen in this video.. kzread.info/dash/bejne/q6dmq9msmcS-oLQ.html Every single shot from this title sequence was shot in Florida. Good luck, and be safe out there!

I am not giving out details of the history for obvious reasons, I am being vague and misleading on purpose.. not to be a dick, but to help preserve. I have been exploring since I was a kid, and I have seen lots of spots go to shit because people don't respect the locations. Even if you are not breaking windows and spray painting dicks on everything.. doesn't matter. All it takes is one careless move like having location services enabled on your phone and uploading a pic to IG/FB.. then voila the whole world knows how to get there and thats when things start going south. It happened at Howie Mansion, it happened at the Victorian Treehouse.. it's happened at countless other locations. If you really want to go, you will do your homework (as I have) and you will find it. Stop asking me for clues, as I have been very clear about not wanting to share the location.. again not to be a jerk, but to help preserve.

+Anomalous Films with all due respect you are more than likely not the first person to stumble onto this area. However you are more than likely the first one to put it on KZread.. If what you say was true, why hasn't any of the "locals" to the area done what you fear? It is not a gated or secluded or hidden area, so all the locals within 15-20 miles of this must know of its existence. Why hasn't there been any damage to it in the short time its questionably been abandoned? Not asking you to answer these questions because you obviously do not know. It's more of a rhetorical question and me thinking outside the box when stuff like this shows up. Just some food for thought!

I took a family trip to Daytona last week and stumbles across this place on my drive. I had seen the video before hand and looked at every comment hoping someone posted it because I really wanted to check this place out. I found it and it is exactly as it looks in the video. Very Cool !!

Nice to see a ghost town with relatively fresh mowed grass. Kappa

I used to work here when it was a state psychiatric facility by the name of G. Pierce woods. Hell, I even had on ground housing.

One can tell from the condition of the buildings and the lack of overgrowth of vegetation, that either it was abandoned just last week, or someone is keeping the lawns up pretty good.

This is clearly a retired military base. The grass is cut, no overgrowth. Keeping that way in case they need to use it in the future

Fascinating in its details. Bits of it do indeed look like government/military housing. Some of the grass appears to have been mown in the recent past. One can see a section where this is the case. Other grasses are that tough grass found in Florida that doesn't grow too quickly. I think the only thing I'd have been concerned about is whether the site was used for some kind of awful experiment.

Over the years they've tried to get real estate investors interested to no avail (the recession of 09 didn't help either); mainly because how isolated the small township is, but the majority of the buildings and houses were (and likely) are still in good shape.

i went here yesterday and there were definitely people doing some kinda campaign work recently but there was no security and the place was completely deserted. most of it clearly hadn't been touched in years but there were parts where it looked like there might have been some kinda work going on, but in any case there was zero security when i went, me and a friend were able to roam around for about 4-5 hours unbothered the grass/foliage was pretty out of control too. someone might have had some plans for it at some point but then realized there's really nothing you can do with it. i can't imagine someone paying for 24/7 security for an abandoned place in bumfuck florida, half the buildings in florida are abandoned lol

I have to say, I don't find it in the least bit creepy. One of the buildings shown was actually a school still in use 10 years ago. The homes were still lived in even more recently than that. Maybe I see it that way since I went to the school there briefly and saw this place daily, and knew someone who lived in the homes who I visited a few times.

G. Pierce Wood Memorial Hospital aka Carlstrom Field aka DeSoto County Juvenile Correctional Institute US 31 Arcadia, Fl This area was once known as Carlstrom Field, and it was established in 1917 to train military pilots for World War I. The airfield facilities consisted of a total of 90 buildings & structures. After World War I, Carlstrom Field was placed in an inactive status in 1922, and all of the buildings were sold to private individuals & removed by 1926. With the onset of World War II, the Carlstrom Field location was chosen to be the site for a contract flying training school for Royal Air Force aviators, run by the Embry Riddle Academy. A new facility was built adjacent to the remains of the WW I-era facilities, and it was dedicated in 1941. Carlstrom Field turned out the last of its cadets in 1945, and it closed later that year. Both Carlstrom & Dorr Fields were sold to the State of Florida for a total of $1. The complex was converted into a mental health facility named the G. Pierce Wood Memorial Hospital. In 2002, the mental hospital closed, but it soon became the Desoto County Juvenile Correctional Complex. Categories: youth detention center which closed in 2011.

I've looked on google the only thing I can find close to it is a base in Cross can someone please help put my mind at ease?

+Jose Estevez Thank you for being respectful.

It was recently bought and turned into a race track and resort for automotive enthusiasts.

No it wasn't. It actually looks exactly the same today.

Sweet T drove by yesterday and it looked exactly the same.

Couldn't have been abandoned too long, the grass in the yards is still short. That or the state dept mowed it regularly. Either way, great find!

it is an air base later mental hospital, and most recently a juvenile detention facility. state mowed it cared after it regularly. it was just bought last year and likely will be torn down and converted into something else.
