Description

Photograph of an exterior view of the Watsonville Hospital, ca.1900. A raised sidewalk extends across the foreground with the lightly-colored, wooden hospital behind it on the left. The three entrances to the hospital sit underneath thin arches at the tops of short staircases. A taller, house-like structure stands on the right behind a short, lightly-colored, wooden fence. A front yard behind the fence in littered with short bushes and a wide palm tree. A large tree drapes over the right side of the house and electrical lines extend above the buildings.
