Description

Exterior view of Bellevue Hospital Ward 40, also known as Sturgis Pavilion. Child patients can be seen beneath a tent in outdoor cribs and cots, with doctors and nurses in attendance. The Sturgis Pavilion was used by the third medical division for the treatment of female patients until it was torn down in 1924. The building faintly visible behind Sturgis Pavilion housed a ward for treating alcoholism (upper floor) and an ambulance garage and stable (lower floor).
