I'm guessing the other 'bridge-like' structure is an extension of the hospital powerhouse (with the two chimneys).
I bet there are tunnels all over this place. Has anyone ever seen blueprints? It's truly a gem.

Here's an additional photo showing the covered ped-way I mentioned as well as the power plant. (lower right)

Well, I finally found out what the larger bridge-like structure is. It's a viaduct connecting the new hospital with the older hospital buildings.

This was taken during construction, but there was no other information. Anyone want to wager a guess what this is showing?
