Pittsburgh United States Marine Hospital
Pittsburgh United States Marine Hospital, Marine hospital building in Lawrenceville, United States.
The Pittsburgh United States Marine Hospital features brick Classical Revival architecture with symmetrical wings extending from a central entrance hall.
Built in 1909 on former Allegheny Arsenal grounds, this medical facility provided care for merchant marine personnel until its closure in 1949.
The hospital housed the first laboratory for scientific investigation of occupational health in the United States during the period of 1915 to 1918.
