Mount McGregor Correctional Facility

One of the closed buildings at Mount McGregor in 2016

Mount McGregor Correctional Facility was a medium security prison for male inmates in the Town of Moreau, Saratoga County, New York, United States. It was served by the Wilton, New York, post office and included 100 structures on over 1,000 acres. Before updating security, it was called "Camp Walkaway" due to the number of breakouts.[1] It became a prison in 1976, housing a maximum of 540 inmates, and eventually closed 38 years later, on July 26, 2014.[2]
