Mount Sinai is built because Jewish and Black doctors were shut out

Jewish physicians in Miami Beach could not get admitting privileges at the area's hospitals, so they organised their own group and set out to build one. The war interrupted the effort and it resumed afterwards, incorporating in 1946 and opening on Alton Road in December 1949. It was founded to give Jewish and Black doctors somewhere to practise, and is now the largest independent non-profit teaching hospital in the state.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
