Roosevelt Island Smallpox Hospital Ruins

Uncanny visit guaranteed. Rumor has it that this crumbling hospital from the 1850s is haunted. Also home to a cat sanctuary, the ruins will take you back to the past in the creepiest of ways. You can ensure your tourist friends never forget their trip to New York by making them believe the hundreds of cats wandering around the ruins are the reincarnations of old patients...eerie! Don't pet them!
