Notes |
Building Nos. 19 and 20 is oriented east-to-west at the center of a multi-part hospital structure and connected by a narrow corridor. Nearly identical wings to the north and south (Buildings No. 21 and 22) are also connected to the rest of the hospital by narrow enclosed corridors (Figure 1). Building No. 19 has the appearance of a Queen Anne residential structure with wrap-around porches and decorative tower and turrets. It housed administrative functions for the hospital such as offices, file rooms, and other staff spaces. Building No. 20 housed the hospital kitchen, dining room, and support spaces in a more utilitarian and symmetrical structure with a rectangular footprint and hipped roof (Figure 2). In 1921, the Marion Branch became the Marion National Sanitarium, a facility dedicated to the treatment of World War I neuropsychiatric cases, including what was then called shell shock and other mental disorders. The emphasis throughout the NHDVS had been shifting from residential campuses to more sophisticated medical care for veterans. The hospital and numerous other buildings were renovated at this time. After 1930 the Marion Branch continued to specialize in psychiatric care as part of the Veterans Administration. The original hospital and many of the barracks were still used for patients until new psychiatric facilities were built on the west side of the site. Since vacated during the 1990s, Building Nos. 19 and 20 has fallen into severe disrepair and will be demolished during 2012.
