GEN POP – General Population SCI Cresson

What began as the Cresson Tuberculosis Sanatorium when it opened in 1913 morphed over the years into a state hospital and finally a state prison (SCI Cresson).SCI Cresson opened in 1987 as a medium-security correctional facility for male inmates. SCI Cresson closed on June 30, 2013, with the State citing the antiquity of the prison and rising costs of maintaining it as the primary reasons for the closure.
