Engraved above the doorway to these “French Apts” is Societe Francaise de Bienfaisance (The French Benevolent Society). Serving as a hospital for almost one hundred years, first on 14th Street and then moving to 30th in 1928, the building is now residential. Babe Ruth is one of the many that were cared for in this hospital.
