Caledonian Hospital[1][2][3] opened in 1910,[4][5] merged[6][7] with the 1840s-founded Brooklyn Hospital in 1982[8] and closed in 2003.[4] Pre-merger, Brooklyn had 444 beds and Caledonian 209.[7]

Caledonian's seven-story structure subsequently became a "luxury rental with 120 units."[9]

History

The hospital's founder's[10] son, Donald G. C. Sinclair (c. 1905–1976), was the president and subsequently chairman of the board.[11][12]

By 1987, Brooklyn Caledonian's Caledonian Campus had a new wing, effectively doubling that location's size.[8] Funding was via loans that were backed by the Federal Housing Authority.[13]
