What ever happened to St. Mary’s Hospital? And what about Baptist Medical Center?
Eye On Real Estate
The derelict hulk at 170 Buffalo Ave. housed St. Mary’s Hospital, which was Brooklyn’s last Roman Catholic hospital when it closed in 2005.
Long-shuttered St. Mary’s is quite a sight, and not in a good way. Its grimy concrete facade is covered with graffiti. Weeds grow atop the front entrance.
But a makeover of the Crown Heights property is in the works. The other day we saw construction crews at the rear of the building filling bins with debris. A truck parked there had a logo on it that said “NorthEast Interior Demolition.”
