What happened to St Mary's Hospital in Toronto?

Answer 1

I too was born at St Mary's Hospital on Jarvis St Toronto Ontario in 1947. I searched and searched to find anything online that hinted that this Hospital even existed. It was not an easy search. But I did find this from Wikipedia:

In Toronto in 1914, the Misericordia Sisters started the St. Mary's Infant Home on Bond Street for maternity and infant care of single women and their children. This later moved to Jarvis Street, where they also began St. Mary's Hospital. Initially primarily a maternity hospital, its service was expanded in 1925, to include medical and surgical service as well. In 1956, both the hospital and the home were moved to Scarborough and opened as the Scarborough General Hospital and Rosalie Hall.[6]

I'd like to see some posts from others that were also born at Toronto's St Mary's Hospital. There have to be quite a fewof you out there! Also if anyone has a picture of the Hospital, could you post it here as well?
