A significant site where many births happened. I have a friend whose mother worked there as a nurse in the maternity ward. It was located on Eastern Parkway near Ralph Ave. and closed in 1965 or ’66. (December 2010)

Kathleen S

I was born there in 1950, my sister in 1954, and several of my cousins. We were all delivered at Brooklyn Women’s Hospital by Dr. Benhamin Dinerman. (August 2012)
