Herman Kiefer Hospital : ウィキペディア英語版 | Herman Kiefer Hospital Herman Kiefer Hospital was a city owned hospital in Detroit Michigan, from 1911 to 2013. It was founded to serve as a public health hospital; to combat rampant infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis, diphtheria, scarlet fever, mumps, measles, and other diseases. It was named after Herman Kiefer, a prominent local physician known for treating the poor. ==History== The first public health facility on the site was opened in 1886 as a smallpox hospital on the outskirts of the city. In 1892 it burned down in a fire deemed “suspicious.". Over then next twenty years several "tent" hospitals were constructed on the site, each dedicated to treating a specific infectious disease—scarlet fever, diphtheria and tuberculosis.〔 In 1909, six more tents were added,〔 causing plans to begin to build a permanent structure. The first permanent structures, pavilions, designed by architect George Mason, opened in 1911.〔 By the mid 1920s Detroit voters approved a $3-million bond issue,〔 to build a brick and cement hospital.〔 This building, designed by Albert Kahn in Neo-Romanesque Revival style,〔 was 424,000 square feet, and had 500 beds in single, or double, rooms, instead of the, then standard, 10 bed wards.〔〔 This new building opened in December 1928.〔〔 By 1932 it had 1,200 beds.〔
