Bethesda Naval Hospital address 1963

[Marlene Zenker]

Can someone tell me the address of Bethesda Naval Hospital in 1963? It comes up now with the same longitude/latitude as Andrews AFB. Thanks.

They combined it with Walter Reed so it has a new formal name:

Right, but I need the 1963 address as I am adding it to the Washington, DC map in the JFK app.

Can anyone verify that 8901 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland, MD 20889 is the original address?

Marlene, do you have access to any old phone directories of that area? They can be a great source of information. You might find a source for them in the Research Tools board on this forum.

Just Google Maps it. It's the same place. You can see the central tower if you go down to street view.



Interesting that there's a new chain link fence barrier dug into the front lawn like a Bush barricade.

Thanks Albert,

So they were always right near each other. I thought they were further away. I appreciate your help.

If only they could make Google maps go back through time. That would be handy ::

No, I think Walter Reed was miles away but they decided to combine both military hospitals under the name Walter Reed.


You can Google satellite the original Walter Reed Hospital at 6900 Georgia Avenue NW, Washington, D.C., USA.
