Lima Tuberculosis Hospital

The Lima Tuberculosis Hospital was a tuberculosis sanatorium built in 1911[1][2] to deal with the leading causes of death in the United States in the early twentieth century.

[4] The capacity changed to 138 patients after an additional remodel occurred in 1957.

In 1972 use of the second floor was shuttered and the entire hospital closed its doors in 1973.

[6] Because of its relatively remote location and the use of hard to clean up substances such as asbestos in the construction of the original 1911 building, the city of Lima did not prioritize demolition of the building.
