Highrise Tower Posted April 6 Author Share Posted April 6 Some information about the old Mosaic of Medicine that was on the front of the hospital, that has since been decommissioned and moved over to the Paula and Joseph C. “Rusty” Walter III Tower. https://www.tmc.edu/news/2018/11/houston-methodists-mosaic-of-medicine/ Extending Arms of Christ was created in 1963 by artist Bruce Hayes, fabricated in Florence, Italy, and then installed on the exterior western face of Houston Methodist Hospital on Fannin Street. As the hospital grew over the years, though, the mosaic became largely hidden to the public. “In the ’80s, we expanded the drop off area, built Dunn Tower in 1989 and we put in a large covered entrance so patients could come and go in a protected environment,” Sanders said. “The result of that was the mosaic, which was right above that, was obscured. … The oak trees on Fannin Street also matured and it became out of sight, out of mind.” In front of the Dunn Tower in 1989: Inside the Walter Tower decades later: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
