A Strange Half Finished office Building along Lincoln Highway in Jeanette

 If you spend any amount of time going up and down the Lincoln Highway also known as US 30 there is a strange unfinished office building as you pass thru the outskirts of Jeanette Pa. across from what was Monsour Medical Center  which is now an empty lot.

now demolished Monsour Medical hospital


It has been sitting like that since at least late 1980s  its just a block and steel shell with windows not even all doors installed. So whats the story ? 

Well back in the 1958 4 brothers  all   Physicians  William ,Roy ,Robert and Howard  opened up 

The modern Monsour Medical Center.

But the hospital seemed to always be burdened  with debt. Partially to do with the brothers disagreeing on how to run the hospital and who exactly was in change and constantly being dogged by regulators for not meeting regulations   .

One day the brother filed for bankruptcy and up and closed hospital leaving everything behind causing a hazmat problem  and improper disposal of patients records. 

The office building across the street was to be an expansion of the hospital featuring Doctors Offices and such  . but between not being able to pay bills and internal arguments it to was abandoned and at this point the property is still mired in muck of who owns what. 

So it will just sit like it has since at least the 80s.
