notes: Low-resolution derivative; seek larger institutional original. Official centennial report distinguishes Dec. 6 opening from Dec. 9 first patient. Small soft source image; do not claim a high-resolution scan or infer fine architectural details. Display copy optimized for the web with proportional resizing and compression. The linked repository identifies the original image. Reuse: U.S. public domain asserted by Commons; Commons public-domain age tag.
