Construction began on the hospital in 1924, and in 1926 the 35 bed two story structure was opened. In 1932 the hospital closed due to economic conditions, then the Sisters Of St. Mary in St. Louis were approached to take over the small hospital. The Sisters agreed and took control on a one year trial basis. The hospital was renamed to St. Mary's, and reopened in 1934 with 50 beds.
They Had added the third floor which consisted of a chapel and living quarters for the sister and a rec room which opened more rooms for patients.
The Sisters worked to add equipment and improvements every year and staffed 4 full time doctors, but the hospital became outdated by the mid 60's. A 10 year project began to build a new hospital at a different site . In approximately 1975 the doors to the old St. Mary's were closed. It has passed through a few owners since then, and was used for awhile as a sheltered workshop for the handicapped.
In 2005 the movie Apocalypse And The Beauty Queen was filmed there, with reports of strange experiences by some of the crew members. Now the building sits empty, crumbling, in very bad condition. The surrounding Neighbors report strange noises, lights, and shadowy figures seen and heard inside from the street.
Some are scared to walk on the same side of the street.
