Who remembers St. Vincent's Hospital in the Village? It was a great Hospital. ❤

Mt Sinai has a long history to the NYC population. It was a major landmark in the city. Unbelievable

Well at least the workers will be transferred to other hospital’s location from what I heard.

It went the way of Long Island College Hospital in Downtown Brooklyn. The CEO (no name) was pleased with the order given by the judge (no name given) despite the advocacy of patient and community groups (no specifics). The unnamed CEO is pleased....🤔🤔🤔

Sorry for East Village, StuyTown, Gramercy Park, Murray Hill, Greenwich Village, NoHo, SoHo, LES, NoLita having to opt for Bellevue, NY Downtown or NYU Langone. Sad Day.

There’s a Mount Sinai at the Harlem River Shopping Plaza.

Thoughts and prayers.
Why would PPL not congregate to a wonderful care center. The financial troubles only prove how messed up our H.C. syst. is.

So they build houses and condos but there’s 1 less hospital. So now people got to travel far to go to other hospitals. I hope they don’t stack up people in less hospitals.

I’m glad that hospital closed down, they so racist in that hospital. I applied for years and only wanted to hired their own people to work there. Should’ve fired them and closed down too.

Convert the buildung to critically needed housing.

Those Orthodox Jews are exempt from being drafted like Amish. Laws needs to change, if all mothers have to send their kids to war during a draft they shouldn't be privileged.
