East of the hospital is the ruin of a long, one-story building. Built in
1884, it consisted of six four-room apartments for married
noncommissioned staff Officers.
Looking west from "Hospital Hill," you may gaze down on the sites of the
Cheyenne-Black Hills Stage Co.'s stables and the Rustic Hotel, another
of the post trader's enterprises during the Black Hills rush. Farther
west stand the ruined walls of a sawmill-pumphouse erected in 1887 to
replace a predecessor destroyed by fire.
