The provide maps illustrate the changes that have happened near the Queen Mary Hospital since the year it was constructed.
Overall, the hospital has been expanded over the years with in-built pharmacy and the cancer centre by removing the shopping centre and the farmland. While, the main road was unaltered.
In 1960, the hospital occupied just around one-fourth of total area, with the shopping centre, the farmland, and the car parking occupying other three quarters equally. In contrast, in 1980, the new cancer centre and the pharmacy was built along the hospital in the place of shopping centre. The farmland was replaced by the nursing school.
However, in 2000, the cancer centre has been expanded by restricting the nursing school and the car park in a single quarter. In contrast to 1960, the hospital combined with the pharmacy and the cancer centre occupied three quarters rather than single quarter in 2000.
