The buildings and layout were the work of Raymond F. Almirall, a New York City architect responsible for other notable municipal and institutional buildings, including the former Emigrant Industrial Savings Bank Building on Chambers Street, several Brooklyn Library branches, the former Fordham Hospital, and several churches. Sea View Hospital is in a landmarked Historic District.
