When the Cushing family arrived in the Boston area in 1912, the hospital building still wasn't ready for occupation. On the occasion of a visit by William Osler to Boston, an unofficial opening took place in February, 1913, the event captured in this photograph. It was not until November 1914, however, that the official opening took place. Seated in the center row are left to right: Charles Sedgwick Minot, William T. Councilman, Henry A. Christian, Sir William Osler, John Collins Warren, Harvey Cushing, H.B. Howard, L.H. Burlingham, Walter B. Cannon. Carrie Hall, first superintendent of nurses stands behind Warren. Photo Boyd #62.
