An unobtrusive, but nonetheless important part of the University’s expansion plan is the Cyclotron Laboratory on Thackery near O'Hara Street. Housing equipment and instruments for advanced research in nuclear physics, the lab works closely with the physics department in the never-ending search for knowledge in the atomic field. The lab was one of the first buildings erected under Pitt’s plan to increase its capabilities for scientific research. High atop the hill, near Pitt Stadium, one of the country’s newest and most modem hospitals is being erected to house the thousands of war veterans still undergoing treatment for battle injuries. With present VA hospitals filled to overflowing, the University tore down the Old Trees Gym in order to make space available for the government hospital which will increase the services presently rendered by Aspinwall and Deshon VA medical facilities. Newly completed and costing $4,750,000, one of the latest additions to the University’s rapidly growing Medical Center is this home for resident nurses. The formal dedication of the structure took place in April of 1953 but due to pressing needs, nurses were moved into the building as fast as facilities were available, and before the finishing touches had been made to equip it for full-scale operations.
