The old Lincoln County Regional Hospital is a collection of history and emotions dating back to 1935 when it moved to the site of former Bryson College. The building had been home to the boy's dormitory during the short life of Bryson College from 1919 to 1929. In 1950 the hospital starts one of its many remodels and tears down the existing building and constructs closer to what we see today. Mor
e additions followed in 1967, with the west and south wings being completed in 1969. In 1974 more modifications were made to the building and the hospital remained at this location until the late 1990's. Many of the people of Lincoln County and Fayetteville have a connection of some sort to this building, whether it's thru birth or death, this piece of concrete holds a piece of us. Much like an old photo or childhood memory time has taken its toll and what once was the center of a historical part of our town gives the appearance of neglect and abandonment. We the people of Fayetteville and the stewards of our history move forward into the newest chapter of what was once known as "The hospital".
