Naval Hospital Long Island, NY (St. Albans) Details
Naval Hospital St Albans sprung into existence during World War II. Commissioned in 1943, its peak capacity was 4642 patients.
After the war, the hospital absorbed the workload of Naval Hospital Brooklyn when that facility was decommissioned. In the mid-1970s, the Navy decommissioned the hospital and turned it over to the Veterans' Administration. The facility now serves as a VA Community Living Center.
