              <text>Located in the Central Ward of Newark, west of the Central Business District, Kenney Memorial Hospital was built in 1927 by Dr. John A. Kenney. This was the first hospital in New Jersey to train African-American doctors and nurses in the era of Jim Crow. In 1935, the building was renamed the Community Hospital when Dr. Kenny donated the hospital to the Booker T. Washington Community Hospital Associations of Newark. The hopital closed in 1953 and was purchased by the New Salem Baptist Church to serve the spritual needs of the community.</text>
