James Lawrence Kernan Hospital is a historic hospital building and grounds located in Baltimore City and in Woodlawn in Baltimore County, Maryland. It was built between 1860 and 1867 as Radnor Park, a two-story, five-bay, Victorian mansion. In the first several decades of the 20th century, alterations were carried out to the original house which made the house over into a combination of the Greek and Colonial Revival styles. The 1920s hospital structures were built in a style that blends well with the mansion and its grounds. James Lawrence Kernan (1838–1912) was a theater manager and philanthropist of the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras in Baltimore.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
As of 2008, the hospital does not have an emergency room, but offers rehabilitation and various outpatient services. The hospital is currently a part of the University of Maryland Medical System.
