The two towers, which are a feature of this building, have been incorporated into the present day Coat of Arms of the hospital. The central block and the west wing of this hospital was completed in September, 1856, and the east wing was built in 1866-67. The Hospital garden and part of the Botanic Gardens appear in the foreground whilst open parkland and roofs of North Adelaide are seen in the background.
