St Elizabeth's own internet site has a history 
of the hospital.  You can go here to read it.

pre-1914 | 1908 
This building was on the northwest corner of 11th and Madison. 
 Opened in 1868, it served until the new building 
on 21st Street opened, August 1, 1914.  It's not the first 
St. Elizabeth.  It's the second.  The first was in a three 
story building on Seventh Street in Covington, between Madison 
and Scott.   That's it below.

 

The first St. Elizabeth's on 7th Street.
It was dedicated on January 23, 1861

 

The St. E below (you most likely know it as
 St. E North) is the third location.

since the boilers in St. E's basement were flooded, and inoperable.
