St. Elizabeths East - History
HISTORY
An historic landmark in the nation’s capital, St. Elizabeths East sits on the former self‑contained St. Elizabeths Hospital campus. Once a major source of economic stability for neighborhoods east of the Anacostia River, the site is surrounded by a rich and complex community history. Its ties to notable figures and events, along with its legacy of architectural and landscape innovation, make it a largely undiscovered historic treasure.
