An exterior view of Bellevue Hospital’s Marquand Pavilion, from an opposite street corner. Several pedestrians are visible, including a woman with a baby carriage and a child selling fruits or vegetables from a cart.

Sketch of the New York University School of Medicine building at East 26th Street in Manhattan by Dr. Clarence de la Chappelle. Originally built for the Bellevue Hospital Medical College, NYU acquired the property in 1898 when the two schools merged. Dr. De la Chapelle received his M.D. from University and Bellevue Hospital Medical College in 1922. He joined the faculty of the medical school in 1925, where he remained for the duration of his career as a leading cardiologist.
An illustration of the Stuyvesant Institute, the first home of the NYU School of Medicine (1841-1851), located at 659 Broadway. In 1851 the school moved to a larger building on 14th Street between Third Avenue and Irving Place. This building burned down and temporary accommodations were used until the school moved to 26th Street, opposite Bellevue Hospital.
