The compound consisted of six buildings directly overlooking the Mississippi River just south of the city. The only two original buildings that remain, the Metal Museum's White Building (the hospital's executive building and possibly the nurse's dormitory) and the laundry and mess hall. Additional buildings built in the mid 1930's and opened in 1937. The hospital was in operation until 1965. Building remaind in use as an Army recruitment and office building until the late eighties. Though some sources claim that officers and soldiers used the building as housing during the Gulf War, I severely doubt this as factual considering the state of deterioration of the interior of the building. It seems fairly likely that no renovations have occurred within the last thirty years. Asbestos removal was begun but never finished.  Media Coverage http://www.memphis...icle.aspx?id=77756 http://www.downtow...er_02.html#auction http://www.memphis...MHIHost/INDEX.html https://www.bizjou...redevelopment.html  Future Plans For sale for development Anyone wanna pitch in a few bucks?  Stories Add your own story  Photo Galleries L'hôpital militaire Thu, Jun 21st, 2007 posted by natxtron 10 pictures heritage auction Sat, Nov 17th, 2007 posted by natxtron 1 pictures Add your own photos Mark all galleries as Seen  Web Links  Contribute Edit this Location  Moderator Rating The moderator rating is a neutral rating of the content quality, photography, and coolness of this location.
