Description
This circa 1915 postcard shows Sisters' Hospital, located at Twenty-Third and R streets. Originally constructed in 1897, the thirty bed hospital saw a modern operating room added in 1900, a chapel in 1905, and a new wing added in 1908 which brought capacity to roughly 60 beds. While Sacramentans simply called the hospital Sisters', it was officially known as Mater Misericordiae or "Mother of Mercy" hospital.
