Talk of a new museum in one of West Palm Beach's historic structures. The city is considering its purchase. Click title for link to Eliot Kleinberg's article.
A black history museum at the site of the vacant and shuttered former Pine Ridge Hospital? Great idea, Mayor Jeri Muoio says. All we need is the money.
The former “colored hospital” at 1410 Division Ave., which operated from 1916 to the mid-1950s, had been converted to apartments but has been vacant for a year and a half.
After The Palm Beach Post reported this week on its condition, a broker reported it’s for sale. City Commissioner Sylvia Moffett — the site is in her district — called on colleagues Monday consider buying the place.
