}} University of Maryland Rehabilitation & Orthopaedic Institute is a rehabilitation hospital located along the border of the Forest Park neighborhood of northwest Baltimore City and Woodlawn, Baltimore County in Maryland. It lies on and is incorporated into the historic hospital building and grounds of the former James Lawrence Kernan Hospital. The hospital is currently now a part of the growing University of Maryland Medical System, centered at South Greene, West Baltimore, West Lombard Streets on the downtown westside historic campus of the University of Maryland at Baltimore. ==History== The James Lawrence Kernan Hospital was built between 1860 and 1867 as Radnor Park, a two-story, five-bay, Victorian mansion. In the first decades of the 20th century, alterations were carried out to the original house which made the house over into a combination of the Greek Revival and Colonial Revival styles. The additional surrounding 1920s-era hospital structures were built in a style that blends well with the old historic mansion and its grounds. James Lawrence Kernan, (1838–1912), was a theater manager and philanthropist of the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras in Baltimore. He had the landmark Kernan Hotel (later renamed the Congress Hotel) on West Franklin Street with its adjacent to the west Maryland Theater of Beaux Arts/Classical Revival styled architecture constructed and opened in 1903, in the middle of the newly central theatre/entertainment district of North Howard Street, in the southwest corner of the Mount Vernon-Belvedere neighborhood, adjacent to the old first downtown campus of the newly-founded (1876) Johns Hopkins University. The "rathskeller" in the basement of the hotel (later also known as the "marble bar") was the site of the first "jazz band" music in the town led by John Ridgley when it opened in 1903. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places maintained by the National Park Service of the U.S. Department of the Interior in 1979.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「University of Maryland Rehabilitation & Orthopaedic Institute」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
