The 6 a.m. view today of Mount Sinai Beth Israel on First Avenue and 16th Street... two hours before the hospital would close for good after 135 years of service to downtown New York...
Donald David, who took these photos, said his two children were born here.

My two children and my first grandchild were also born there. Sad day.
Our leaders have failed us. The disappearance of hospitals that once served the community for decades is yet another indication of the wrong road we are stubbornly traveling down as a society.
But another Whole Foods will be opening in the vicinity soon. There's only one city in America and it's an economic powerhouse. Our leaders only want the rich now. You can always move, well, the rest of America isn't doing so well in many areas.
My mom passed there. They treated her really well up to the end.
Real estate industry does not care about any of us unless they can sell us a condo. The rest of us can die for all they care, I add City Hall and all those complicit elected officials to that group.
