About this postcard

The card shows a long, multi-story brick institutional complex identified in print as St. Elizabeth's Hospital, with the Chapel and St. Francis' Convent named along the facade. The buildings are viewed from across a broad street, where a horse-drawn carriage and a few small figures appear near the curb. Gothic Revival pointed windows and spires mark the chapel block, while the hospital and convent wings are plain and rectangular.
