Not much remains of many of the prison camps of the Civil War. Elmira and Lookout were torn down. Lookout is now a state park and there is a housing development where the Elmira Prison Camp once stood. The cemeteries are the only thing left from Elmira and Lookout along with some monuments. Andersonville is the only one that has been preserved in some state. It is now home to a museum, and parts of the wooden stockades have been re-constructed.
