History
Hickory has the 162nd largest urban area in the United States. Since local facilities were inadequate to treat the victims, the citizens of Hickory and the March of Dimes decided to build a hospital to care for the children of the region. A Red Cross official on the scene praised the project "as the most outstanding example of cooperative effort he has ever seen." (Hickory Daily Record, June 30, 1944) Although few good references are available online, an interesting side to this story is found [http://www.wfu.edu/~gillesmk/SHOPtalk/Zuber.pdf here]. From the time the decision was made until equipment, doctors, and patients were in a new facility, took less than 54 hours. During World War II, the factory made ammunition boxes for the US Military instead of furniture.
