**The Greystone Park Psychiatric Hospital** was not just a structure; it represented an entire epoch of distinctive American history. It encompassed the remarkable humanitarian endeavors of **Dorothea Dix** and the groundbreaking architectural innovations of **Dr. Thomas Story Kirkbride**. Having dutifully served for well over a century, Greystone was left abandoned in 2008. From its closure until its eventual demolition in 2015, Greystone became the epicenter of an impassioned preservation campaign that garnered national attention and ignited the public's fascination with safeguarding historical asylums. Many of the pictures featured in this book were rescued from the depths of Greystone's basement in 2002 and had remained unseen by the public until now. These images have been made available thanks to the efforts of the Morris Plains Museum and its dedicated staff, who spent countless hours digitally preserving these photographs so that future generations can gain a deeper understanding of Greystone's historical significance. **Dr. Robert Kirkbride**, descendant of Dr. Thomas Story Kirkbride, provides an introduction on the importance of the history (past, present, and future) of Greystone Park and other endangered former Kirkbride plan buildings.
