From Creepy Mental Hospital To Just Another Place To Put A Slimy Nail Salon.

Not too far from Portland sits the abandoned Dammasch State Mental Hospital where, along with the Oregon State Mental Hospital in Salem, parts of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest were filmed.

Enter Costa Pacific Communities who is purchasing the site from the State of Oregon. The sale is expected to close in May of this year. What are they going to do? They will develop a sprawling
Urban Village complete with 2,400 housing units and 35,000 square feet of retail space.
