ca. 1973. 1973 Richards stock footage. Construction was well underway in 1973 regarding St. Joseph's curvilinear styled hospital tower on South "I" St. As this aerial view indicates, two stories of the eventual 189-feet, 14-story tower have been built. 22,000 tons of concrete would be used for construction. The new hospital would be dedicated on December 15, 1974. The old St. Joseph Hospital, across the street in the 1800 block of South "I," would be demolished in 1982.
