“Mother Cabrini Science Addition — 1973”
The source wording is secure; the exact Mother Cabrini school/hospital/institution remains unresolved.
Mother Cabrini bought this northern-Manhattan property in 1899 for a girls' boarding school whose tuition helped support orphanages and free schools for poor children. Her remains rested in the school chapel from 1933 until a separate shrine opened next door in 1959. The 1930 school building survives as a charter school; Joseph's named 1973 science addition is a strong match, though its plans still need to be found.
