 Hazards

  •  Interesting Features
    Hospital has been virtually untouched by vandals and although it is lacking most of the hospital paraphernalia (due to a very thorough job of gutting the place) that one would expect to find it does have full electricity so things like elevators, security keypads, telephone switch boards, light switches etc are still functioning.

     History
    San Jose Medical Center shut down on 12-9-04. It had served the downtown area for over 80 years and was one of only three trauma centers in the county. The company running the hospital claimed that they were losing approx. 16 million in the hospitals last year of operation due to state regulations requiring them to hire more nurses and start doing seismic retrofitting. It will cost about 50-100 million to bring the hospital up to safety standards which most likely will result in the 10 acre hospital remaining vacant.
