This image of Mercy Hospital’s main and emergency entrances when it was located along East Park Avenue was taken about nine years before the institution moved to its present location at Three Springs. First opened in 1882, the health care facility had many structural modifications at this site before the 2006 move. The Durango Public Library is now at this location. Here, neighboring San Juan Regional Medical Center’s AirCare brings a patient to the rooftop helipad for care at the hospital. – Ed Horvat for Animas Museum, edhorvat@animasmuseum.org (Catalog Number: 04.05.89 from the La Plata County Historical Society Photo Collections)
