    Staten Island Hospital moves to a new campus on Seaview Avenue

    In the 1970s Staten Island Hospital, by then too large for its first home on Castleton Avenue, built this campus at 475 Seaview Avenue, on the stretch from Mason Avenue to Olympia Boulevard where South Beach meets Ocean Breeze. The institution traces its start to December 1861, when it was founded as the Samuel R. Smith Infirmary.

    A merger with Richmond Memorial turns the hospital into Staten Island University Hospital

    During the 1990s Staten Island Hospital, which ran this Seaview Avenue site, combined with Richmond Memorial Hospital in Prince's Bay, and the joined institution took the name Staten Island University Hospital. This campus became its North Campus and the Prince's Bay hospital its South Campus. Today the two-campus system, part of Northwell Health, has 668 beds.

    “…adopted its current name during the 1990s with the merger of Staten Island Hospital (now the North Campus) and the Richmond Memorial Hospital…”
