Pelham Bay General Hospital[1] (now defunct) was a 1960-built Bronx hospital that became the Florence D’urso Pavilion of Our Lady of Mercy Medical Center.[2][3] Following 2007 financial failure of the latter,[4] the five story[5] building, after being vacant for many years,[6] was converted to housing units.
