As part of the rennovations of the former Western State Hospital (later Staunton Correctional Center) into shockingly expensive condos and offices the former power plant is going to be turned into a bar/restraunt. How would you like to live in a former prison/mental hospital - if you have $400,000 you can in Staunton. Actually, the former Western State Hosptial campus is really beautiful - it is so pretty that it was even pretty when it was used as a prison - it originally opened in the 1820s and is listed on the National Historic List |
