Scope and content
Cushman Indian Hospital; buildings, residences, and manicured grounds. In 1928, these buildings that had previously housed the Indian school and the Cushman Veteran's Hospital were given to the US Indian Service as a tuberculosis treatment unit. The buildings were demolished to erect the Tacoma Indian Hospital in the forties. The hospital was completed in 1943, its construction delayed due to a wartime shortage of building supplies.
