Seton Hospital was created through a partnership between the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati and the Eclectic Medical College. As described in Harvey Wickes Felter's book History of the Eclectic Medical Institute, Cincinnati, Ohio, 1845-1902, Seton Hospital was "constructed at an expense of $90,000,...and is located at 640 West Eighth Street, near Cutter. The building, a large stone-front structure, is located on a lot fronting sixty-three feet on Eighth Street, and running two hundred feet through to Ninth Street, thus giving a double street frontage and excellent light and ventilation." The hospital operated in the West End neighborhood of Cincinnati until 1925, when it merged with Good Samaritan Hospital.
