Abandoned Places

Central Unit

Sugar Land, TX

The Central Unit was a Texas state prison at Sugar Land, opened in 1909 on land worked since the convict-leasing era and closed in 2011. Its ground holds hard history — beside it in 2018 were found the graves of the 'Sugar Land 95', Black prisoners of the leasing years — and that truth outweighs any ghost story.
