3 BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE, NEW YORK, THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1931, New Tubercular Hospital to Cost About $3,000.000 500 Patients Will Be Cared For in New Brooklyn Institution, Says Greeff "No effort will be spared to make the new Tuberculosis Hospital in Brooklyn one of the best and most efficient institutions of its kind in the world," Dr. J. G. W. Greef, Commissioner of the Department of Hospitals, said today.

"And by this I mean the building as well as accommodations for patients and treatmest. As to details, it is impossible to go into them now, except that there will be accommodations for 500 patients and that $3,000,000 will be expended on the building. "Plans in detail," the Commissioner went on, "cannot be prepared until we are sure that the Board of Estimate will accept the site recommended by this department. The location of this site is at the north and adjacent to the Kings County Hospital group of buildings. It comprises an entire city block in my opinion, as good a location for an institution of that sort as can possibly be found in Brooklyn, especially because of its nearness to the Kings County Hospital.

"As I have said, nothing definite can be done about the plans until we are sure that the site in ques1 tion will be accepted by the Board of Estimate, after having been approved by the Board of Aldermen, in which latter body the matter is now pending. I do not doubt that it will be accepted provided the present owners of the property do not put too high a price upon it. If they do we shall have to look around for another location for the Tuberculosis Hospital." The other new Brooklyn Hospital decided upon by the city government will be erected in Bay Ridge. The site selected by the Hosiptal Department, tentatively, also embraces an entire city block, bounded by 15th and 16th Aves. and 83d and 84th Sts.

This is to be a general hospital, with room for 400 beds and will cost $2,500,000, according to estimates. Queens Borough, too, is to get a new general hospital. De The site chosen by the Hospital Department for this institution is at Queens Boulevard and Grand Elmhurst. The estimated cost of this building is $2,500,000, and will have space for 400 patients. John E.

Kleist of 134 E. 44th Manhattan, is the architect of the Tuberculosis Hospital building. Court Dismisses Case Against Dr. Ebeling Dr. William B.
