chicago's jefferson park hospital slated for demolition
This entry was posted on February 3 2020 by Eric
a demolition permit was issued for jefferson park hospital (1922) late last week. according to building records, the architect was f.o. demoney, who designed a three-story addition made of brick and limestone.
the existing building replaced an impressive 19th century victorian mansion, where the hospital was first organized as a private institution by dr. john dill robertson in august of 1900.
it's highly unlikely that the neighboring 1870s italianate rowhouse with "athens marble" or joliet limestone facade, is in harm's way, but i can't be certain - nor would i be surprised. the hospital used it as a residence for nurses.
