Is $474.7 million a fete accompli for Charity Hospital?
The beautiful art deco building that has housed Charity Hospital for as long as I’ve been alive is under worse threat with the awarding today of millions of dollars to rebuild. It seems Jindal wants to streamline the razing of an entire neighborhood in lower Midcity to make way for a suburban sprawl of hospital big box buildings rather than do what his constituents want and that is to retrofit the beautiful and historic Charity Hospital existing building.
