Edward H. Haskell Home for Nurses
The Edward H. Haskell Home for Nurses, also known as the New England Baptist Hospital Training School For Nurses, is a historic academic complex in the Mission Hill neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. Its original building, a 1-1/2 to 2+1⁄2-story brick-faced wood-frame building, was designed by Edward Sears Read in the Jacobethan style and built in 1922. This building originally housed a dormitory and classrooms. In 1931 a large wing gave the building an L shape, and another series of additions in 1940 gave the complex its present appearance, surrounding a courtyard atop Parker Hill. The complex was converted into an assisted-living facility in 2002.[2]
