On July 20, 1925, the Daily News reported that the mayor and board of public works invited the public to Reservoir Hill to see progress on the new city-county hospital.

The Rotary and Kiwanis clubs worked together to propose a bond for the new hospital in 1923. Twelve bids for the new hospital location were opened in January 1925, and Reservoir Hill was chosen for the building location. A little over a year later, the public was invited to the dedication ceremony and allowed to see the completed hospital.
