Shore Road Hospital was a 93-bed private hospital in Brooklyn, New York City, which opened in 1924 and was demolished in 1977. [1] [2] [3] "Although it was a full service hospital, it specialized in maternity care." [3]
The hospital attempted to advance state of the art in this and other areas, including:
The hospital's building previously was a mansion "built around 1910 to 1911" [3] and later owned by John J. Raskob. [2] Conversion was done by Charles Greenfield, who operated Shore Road Hospital for 43 years. [1] The hospital's grounds were large enough to accommodate constructing housing for nurses and other employees. [3]
The main structure was razed in 1977. Once "the entire hospital complex was torn down" [3] a 558-unit apartment house was built on the three-acre site: [2] Shore Hill Apartments. [3] Plans for a taller building had previously met community resistance. [6]
Dr. Hubbard Lynch will discuss the injection treatment for varicose veins at the medical conference at the Shore Road Hospital
