Smallpox Hospital

El Smallpox Hospital es un hospital histórico abandonado ubicado en la Isla Rooseevelt, en la ciudad de Nueva York.
Proyectado por el arquitecto James Renwick jr. en estilo neogótico, el Smallpox Hospital, con una capacidad de cien camas, se abrió en 1856 en el aislado extremo sur de la isla, para garantizar la cuarentena de los pacientes de viruela, tanto de beneficencia como de pago .[2]​En 1875 el hospital se cerró y se convirtió en una escuela de enfermería, asociada al City Hospital. Entre 1903 y 1905 se añadieron al edificio dos alas, en el mismo estilo neogótico, para alojar al creciente número de estudiantes.[2]​ El cierre definitivo se produjo en la década de los cincuenta, con el traslado de las instalaciones a Queens, y el edificio cayó progresivamente en la ruina.[3]​
