Excerpt:
The structures included in the Oteen Veterans Administration Hospital Historic District were built between 1924 and 1940 to replace a large collection of frame buildings which had served as U.S. Army General Hospital No. 19 in the late teens and early twenties. From the completion report submitted by the constructing quartermasters on June 1, 1919, one learns that U.S.A. Hospital No. 19 occupied a site of 346 acres and included 102 buildings. Forty-seven of these were identified as tuberculosis wards. … In 1922 the hospital was placed under the authority of the newly created Veterans Bureau and plans were announced to replace the World War I-era frame structures with permanent buildings.
