Between 1929 and 1936 the last major construction was finished. When all construction was completed, the facility included a farm, a freezing plant, a recreational hall, a movie theatre, and a chapel. Throughout the years, the Lunatic Asylum had many name changes to keep up with the political correctness of the society of the day. In 1978, the Provincial Hospital was incorporated under the name of Centracare, with management of the institution transferred to a Board of Trustees. In February of 1998 the old facility was closed. Centracare Saint John Incorporated is no more and is now called the Atlantic Health Sciences Corporation. | Between 1929 and 1936 the last major construction was finished.
