“Nassau Hospital — 1973”
Nassau Hospital completed a new parking structure in 1973; the larger Hoag Pavilion came two years later.
A useful infrastructure card: the family list preserves the support buildings that usually disappear from conventional architectural histories.
What Kelly did here
Family source
Strong
Likely CMU stair/elevator enclosures, screen/parapet walls and service rooms within the parking structure; structural concrete deck/frame work should not be assigned to Kelly without evidence.
This scope is recorded as strong, not documented. It is a disciplined reading of the building and the trade practice of the period, not a contract-level record of Kelly’s work.
The construction team
The construction team for this job has not yet been established.
What happened to it
Still standing / campus altered
The former Nassau Hospital is now NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island, an active and expanding Mineola medical campus.
