On the page https://livingnewdeal.org/projects/knox-county-tuberculosis-hospital-vincennes-in/ The location map shows an incorrect location for the TB hospital. The correct location was approximately 38.701198, -87.487864. The building has been torn down, but that is where it was, not in the city of Vincennes.
Thank you; I’ve updated the coordinates on the map and revised the text!
