Title: McCarthy Album 05, Photograph 019
Description: Caption: "S.P. Hospital, S.F.," c. 1910. Constructed in 1908 and designed by architect Daniel J. Patterson, the hospital treated Southern Pacific Railroad workers from across the American West, as well as passengers injured while riding. As the twentieth century progressed and automobiles supplanted trains as the premier method of transportation for people and goods, the hospital entered a period of decline, closing in 1974. It has since been renovated and now serves as a senior housing complex.
