Description

A long-abandoned provincial prison left to crumble in the frigid air of Ontario.

Location: 46.2203, -80.9071

Burwash Correctional Center was opened in 1914. Over the years, an entire community sprang up around it, built by inmates to house 1,000 or so residents who worked at the prison and its farm. But the prison was deemed too costly and was shuttered in 1975, leaving the red brick building to the elements (and a handful of adventurous visitors).
