Architectural rendering of what appears to be the South Wing of the Vanderbilt Hospital, which was already built in 1959. Two more floors were added in 1963 to house laboratory and office space for the Clinical Research Center.

The first two floors of the Learned Lab were completed in 1952, but it wasn't until 1961 that the building was finished.

Construction probably related to the completion of the Learned building in 1961.

People enter the hospital from the front entrance.

The new Vanderbilt Hospital wasn't officially opened until 1980, but this view of the old hospital was taken from the new one in October of 1979. Part of the structure can be seen at the very right edge of the image.

The Chapman Quadrangle (named after medical school dean John Chapman) was formed by the addition of the Learned Lab building in 1952. This undated image (probably from the 1970s) shows the grass and trees with a light layer of snow.

Vanderbilt added a new entrance to the hospital in 1964, known at the time as the "West Court Project," which is now the main entrance to Medical Center North.

The new West Court project added a new entrance to Medical Center North in 1964. The section of Garland Ave. seen here is now a plaza between MCN and the hospital.
