    Estate Find
    In original box.
    James Henry Roosevelt bequeathed his fortune to establish "a hospital for the reception and relief of sick and diseased persons," but further funds had to be raised before building and running Roosevelt Hospital.  The hospital's first building opened and it began operations on November 2, 1871, seven years after its establishment.[
    Much of the original hospital, including the emergency room, was torn down to make way for two 49-story residential buildings at One Columbus Place.
    Merger
    St. Luke's Hospital and Roosevelt Hospital merged in 1978, becoming St. Luke's–Roosevelt Hospital Center. The hospitals became part of the Mount Sinai Health System in 2013. On November 17, 2015, St. Luke's–Roosevelt rebranded for the first time in 146 years and christened Mount Sinai West – against the objection of the Roosevelt family.  On February 7, 2020, Mount Sinai St. Luke's was renamed Mount Sinai Morningside and was separated from Mount Sinai West.
