Our Building History
1891
St. Joseph’s Hospital was built on 10th avenue after Sisters of the Third Order of St. Francis traveled by foot to solicit money from lumber camps. St. Joseph’s Hospital expanded to 75 hospital bed from 1900 to 1911.
When local industrialist Marshall Lloyd died in 1927, he left his fortune to the people of Menominee for health care, and a new hospital (later renamed St. Joseph’s-Lloyd) was erected next door.
1950
Marshall Lloyd Hospital, situated next to St. Joseph’s, was dedicated and also operated by the Sisters of the Third Order of St. Francis. In 1974, after facing financial problems, the Order divested its interest in the two hospitals and the county, renaming it Menominee County Lloyd Hospital.
1980
The first merger of hospitals across state lines took place with Menominee County Lloyd Hospital and Marinette General Hospital. A 20-year lease was signed with Bay Area Medical Center and services were further expanded. New facilities were built and in October 2005 the Menominee building was returned to the county.
2008
Renovations begin on the former Menominee County Lloyd Hospital to develop The Harbors Retirement Community, an exclusive new residence for seniors with unique amenities reminiscent of the historical charm of this community landmark.
Today
The Harbors continues as a modern and active 65 bed retirement community. The building is meticulously maintained to preserve the reminiscent of the historical charm of the community landmark.
