Welcome to Corridor No. 9, looking west.

description

Summary

The east-west corridor which links all of the buildings in the contagious disease hospital complex on Island No. 3, corridor No. 9 was completed in 1909 as an open passage of stuccoed brick piers spanned by metal balustrades, surmounted by tiled gabled roofs. The openings were later filled in with large multi-pane metal sash windows. Corridor No. 9 is one story at the west end, where it joins the powerhouse, office building (Labratory/Pharmacy), and mortuary; two stories in the midsection where it connects the eight measles wards, the administration building, and the kitchen; and one story with curving arms at the east end where it links up with the isolation wards and the staff house.
