Summary
| Description |
English: Caption: "WASHINGTON INSTITUTE AND CITY RESERVOIR." No credit line. In 1830 the New York City Fire Department's first reservoir (the octagonal building) was erected near the southeast corner of 13th Street and Fourth Avenue; in 1850 New York Medical College was founded in a new building on the site, at 112 East 13th Street. The Washington Institute on 13th Street was a private school for boys; in the late 1840s the Roman Catholic Sisters of Charity acquired the property and founded St. Vincent's Hospital there. Sources:
