My projects seem to come in groups. For a while it was schools. Now it's, well you get it.
When you think of hospitals, what should come to mind are images of clean, sanitary well-lit spaces. But just like any other abandoned building, vandals, water, and temperature will take their toll.
There are three building in this collection, each slated for major rehab made possible by State Historic Tax Credits. The ultimate objectives vary from apartments and office space to senior housing. Despite their outward appearance all these buildings seem structurally sound and well worthy of rehab. Hopefully I'll get to see the finished results in a year or two.
Wish someone would redevelop the hospital at 18th & Forest! But these could sure use some help.
