Harbor-UCLA Medical Center

The Los Angeles Port of Embarkation (LAPE) Hospital was built by the United States Army in 1943 on the 78-acre site between Carson and 220th and Vermont and Normandie. The 77 pavilion-style Army barracks, known at the time as "Station Hospital," served as a military transfer hospital for casualties from the Pacific Theater of World War II as well as provided health care to servicemen and their families stationed in the area. With the end of the war, came the beginning of the dramatic transformation resulting in Harbor-UCLA Medical Center as we know it today.
