History
In 1853, a section of land on the corner of Mt Elliott and Jefferson Avenues in Detroit was set aside for the purpose of constructing a Marine Hospital.[4] The original hospital was completed in 1857, and sited 225 feet off Jefferson.[4] The hospital opened the same year, with Zina Pitcher as the first physician in charge.
At some point, additional structures were built to support the hospital, including a building to house nurses on the corner of Mount Elliott and Jefferson.[5] The hospital was eventually moved to a new building farther east, and the Detroit Border Patrol Station was installed in the nurse's quarters. A modern addition was constructed in the rear of the building in 1964.[6] The building was designated the "Rosa Parks Federal Building" in 2005.[7]
In 2014, the building received extensive interior renovations and updates.
The building is currently listed for action on the GSA website for 400,000 starting bid. The action is on March 1,2024 at 2:00PM CT.
