A new hospital building goes up at Tenth Avenue and 48th Street as the Israel and Zion hospitals merge
Construction of a new hospital building at Tenth Avenue and 48th Street was under way in early 1920. That year the Israel Hospital of Brooklyn and Zion Hospital completed their long-delayed merger, legally finished on May 19, 1920, and the combined hospital was nicknamed Israel-Zion. The building still belongs to the Maimonides campus, partly hidden by newer construction, and serves as the hospital administration building.
“In early 1920, the new hospital building was under construction, at a new location, Tenth Avenue and Forty-eighth Street; that building is still part of the Maimonides campus…”
