For the wardens of Eastern State, the penitentiary was more than just a workplace, it was also their home. While employed by the prison, most wardens and their families lived inside the iconic gatehouse and administrative building. In fact, stories of families, both biological and chosen, are found in every era of Eastern State history.

Discover more about the families who called Eastern State home and those in prisons today with Connor Feeney, Membership Specialist, and enjoy a virtual view into the rarely seen ruinous and abandoned apartment quarters the wardens once called home.
