[edit] History
The site was used as a tuberculosis sanitarium (1906 - 1955), a Division of Youth facility (Otisville Training Facility, up to 1972), and briefly a drug treatment center, before it became a state prison.
Due to the length of the prison fence and rough terrain, exterior guards are mounted on horses.
A sawmill for lumber and maple syrup production were soon introduced for prisoner work. [[ == == == ยท
