The Westover Air Force Base Hospital is a former hospital at Westover Air Force Base. With the reduction of the base to a reserve base in 1974, the hospital closed. The buildings stood for decades as objects of urban legend for local children until they were finally torn down in the early 1990s.[1][2]
