Author Biographical Info

Hermann Hospital was a public hospital endowed by George Hermann (1843-1914) with a fortune accumulated through investments in oil and real estate. The hospital opened south of downtown Houston in the summer of 1925. It merged with Memorial Hospital in 1999 to create Memorial Hermann Health System. The original Spanish-style building is now part of Children's Memorial Hermann in the northwest corner of the Medical Center.

Description

A black and white photograph of the Hermann Professional building after its expansion, which occurred in the mid-1950s. A "Private Keep Out" sign is visible on the ground near what appears to be a parking lot. This appears to be a similar photograph to IC086-OV107-f1-004, however, there is typing on the front of the photograph that reads, "Mr. Sterling Your Building---But you can't have the income!"
