Thanks. Someone had mentioned Sullivan St earlier and I thought they were saying that was the original location. Yes I was told it was Corrinnes at one time but that building does not match the picture of a brick building on the post card that was sent eatlier. -----Original Message----- From: vafloyd-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:vafloyd-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Donna Hayden Sent: Sunday, January 13, 2008 8:30 AM To: vafloyd@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [VAFLOYD] Duncans and Altamons Hospital Winnie, On my birth certificate it is "New Altamont Hospital" and I don't recall ever hearing "old." According to some research it was a nursing school/hospital from 1922 - 1927. It is located on Radford Street, and the business there now is Corrines, so you are right. The building housed a car dealer for a long time and has been remodeled several times, although it still retains some of the original look. It is not where Krogers is, but across from the Christiansburg Middle School. The official address is 100 Radford Street, NW. It is on Radford, between College and Depot if you are looking at a map. Hope this helps.
