University of Pennsylvania, Lea Institute of Hygiene, 225 South Thirty-fourth St Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, PA
the Lea Institute of Hygiene marked the continuation of ideas represented by the design for the Johns Hopkins Hospital a generation earlier. Later alterations for new functions have changed the original balanced design but the original fabric is generally intact. Its last use was as a fine arts studio, and academic classrooms. The building forms a part of the University of Pennsylvania Historic District and stands across the street from the National Landmark Furness Building.
