Notes
  • Significance: The Office Building associated with the contagious disease hospital was constructed in 1908. It has the scale and form of a domestic structure, with a two room deep center hall plan. The Office Building is joined to the contagious disease hospital by a one-story covered passageway on the south elevation. It also displays the same materials and Georgian Revival styling as the rest of the Island 3 hospital complex. Historic drawings indicate that originally the first floor was used as office, a doctor’s library, and a dispensary. The second floor included laboratories and living quarters for the hospital pharmacist. Upon completion of the contagious disease hospital complex in 1909, the Office Building was re-designated Building 1. By 1924, the first floor offices were remodeled as living space for male nurses and the building renamed the Nurses’ Quarters. This use appears to have remained in place until the hospital complex closed in 1951.
