The Naval Hospital opened in 1941 to serve World War II troops and their families.
Alameda Naval Hospital also had a dental unit that operated until closure.
Most Navy personnel in need of care were sent to Naval Hospital Oakland starting in 1960.
In 1975 the hospital and dental unit closed and only the depot used the building, now called Navy Fleet Industrial Supply Center or Navy FISC Administration Building/Alameda FISC building.
