Designed by Daniel J. Patterson and constructed in 1908 on Fell and Baker, the second iteration of Southern Pacific Hospital is San Francisco's oldest intact hospital.
Built to be fireproof, the new hospital set the stage for comfort and modernity in its offerings. In a 1912 article from the Southern Pacific Bulletin a typhoid patient is quoted as being "full of praise for the quality of professional services and courteous treatment rendered him at the Company's hospital. He declared the Southern Pacific Hospital to be one of the very finest on this Coast."
