Summary
The House of Refuge in Toronto in 1865. Established in 1860 as a home for "vagrants, the dissolute, and for idiots", the building became a smallpox hospital during an epidemic during the 1870s. Demolished in 1894, a new structure called the "Riverdale Isolation Hospital" was built on the site in 1904, an establishment that evolved into the Rivderdale Hospital and later Bridgepoint Health.
