Columbia Hospital for Women information


The Columbia Residences, formerly known as the Columbia Hospital for Women, in Washington, D.C.

The Columbia Hospital for Women was a former hospital located in Washington, D.C. Originally opening in 1866 as a health-care facility for wives and widows of Civil War soldiers, it moved in 1870 from Thomas Circle to its later location at 2425 L Street, NW in the West End neighborhood. The Columbia became a private, non-profit hospital when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed legislation transferring it to a board of directors in 1953.

The facility closed in 2002 and the building was converted into a condominium, The Columbia Residences.[1] Among the more than 250,000 people born at Columbia Hospital for Women were Duke Ellington, Marion Christopher Barry, Al Gore, Andrew Schwartz, Katherine Heigl, Michael Dominic, Julie Nixon Eisenhower,[2] and Wes Moore.[3]
