The upper part of the budding is occupied with the nurses' rooms, stewards' rooms, and the bed-rooms for the inmates, with baths, store-closets, and every other convenience. The building is warmed with hot-water apparatus, besides the fireplaces. Hot and cold water is laid on throughout the building. The dinners are sent up by lifts, and there is also a lift to send up heavy things...The architect is Mr. R. L. Roumieu...The contractors for the building were Messrs. Longmire and Burge.
