THE
BEGINNING OF
INFANTS IN NEED, INC.'s
LINDA RAY CHILDREN'S CENTER
(At the bottom of this rendering it is titled Infant Center Complex
but it should read Children's Center Complex)
A more detailed drawing was
made by Sasaki
and presented to the Board showing the entire proposed Children's Center.
The entire complex, as shown above, was to contain, upper right, the existing Infant Center, operated by
The Children's Home Society.
Right below the Infant Center far upper right with the round tower on the rendering, was a 6 unit apartment building
to be renovated into the Toddler Building. To the left of the Toddler Building was a 24 unit apartment complex that was
to be renovated into an Intervention Center.
This entire complex was to be known as The Linda Ray Children's Center.
