Property Highlights

The site is a vacant property located at 1667 Davis Street in the City of Camden (Camden County), New Jersey. The property is bound to the north and west by residential properties, to the south by Whitman Park, and to the east by Davis Street beyond which is Dr. Charles E. Brimm Medical Art School and industrial and commercial facilities. The site was originally developed for use in the early 1920?s as the City of Camden Municipal Hospital for Contagious Diseases. In the 1950?s, the Site became the South Jersey Medical Research Foundation Laboratory and Coriell Institute for Medical Research (CIMR). Between the 1950?s and 1980?s, the original hospital buildings were demolished and replaced over the course of multiple phases with the laboratory buildings located at the Site through the summer of 2018, when all buildings and structures were demolished. The Site was purchased by Camden Laboratories, LP in 1989 and operated as a series of medical laboratories including Viro-Med Biosafety and Quality Bio-Tech until 2007 at which time the property was vacated. The site is currently owned by the City of Camden and proposed for reuse as an extension of the adjacent Whitman Park.
