This is a historical photograph featuring two separate images displayed side by side. The images showcase Central Buildings of the City Hospital located on Blackwell's Island (now Roosevelt Island) in New York City, likely part of the New York City Almshouse System.

• Left image: The caption reads "Nurses Home." It depicts a large stone building surrounded by open lawn spaces and several trees. The architectural design includes ornate details such as spires and gables. Additional smaller structures, possibly gazebos or utility buildings, are visible.
