The Kings Park Psychiatric Center is a former state-run psychiatric hospital located in Kings Park, New York. It operated from 1885 until 1996, when the State of New York shut the facility down, either releasing its few remaining patients or transferring them to the still-operational Pilgrim Psychiatric Center.

By 2017, New York State contracted with National Salvage for demolition of the structures. National is also known for the reclamation of old railroad ties and related services. It is part of the Nissequogue River State Park.
