Our Lady of Hope Hospital

Our Lady of Hope Hospital is located near Vernon Square Station in the ruins of Downtown DC in the Capital Wasteland. It's a good source for medical supplies and explosives, and plays a role in the Reilly's Rangers quest. There are entrances to the hospital from the Square as well as the Dry Sewers. A broadcasting antenna has fallen from the hospital into the Statesman Hotel, and the only way to enter the hotel's upper floors is by crawling over the antenna.

The ground floor has a large number of Super Mutants, including at least 2 Centaurs and 7 Super Mutant Brutes.

The terminal that controls the turret system is located in a room in the North East corner of the hospital lobby.

On the East side of the first floor, there is a locked (average) closet. Unlocking the closet reveals a still-functioning Mister Handy who will proceed to wander the halls and attack centaurs and super mutants.

In the eastern hallway there is an explosive (60 skill) baby carriage at the first ceiling lamp.

In the north end of the building in the cafeteria are several super mutants, as well as several traps, including:
 * Frag Mine next to 4 Fire Extinguishers atop a Gurney,
 * Grenade bouquet in the Women's bathroom rigged off of a tripwire
 * Both bathrooms have Microfusion Cell traps built into one of the cisterns (I presume these zap anyone who drinks from them, but they're a useful source of Laser Rifle ammunition)
 * A room on the north east has 2 working computers, the one closest to the door has a tell-tale rotating sensor atop it, using the back plate of it reveals a frag grenade trap. This trap only activates when you use the front of the computer.'
 * On the top stair leading up to the second floor balcony are 2 frag mines (the super mutant will usually detonate these if he runs to attack you)
 * In the staircases several tripwires that activate Grenade bouquets.

Notable Loot

 * Pre-War Book can be found on the counter in the large room before second floor
 * There is a D.C. Journal of Internal Medicine in a room at the South East corner of the hospital, 1st level. Look to your right (NW)as you enter the room and it will be on a table next to the radio, below the clock.
 * Another copy of the D.C. Journal of Internal Medicine is on a table in the Cafeteria on the second floor (next to the leaking gas pipe).
 * Many Firehose Nozzles to make some spare Rock-It Launchers.

Behind the Scenes

 * This location appears to be a reference to St. Elizabeth's Hospital, similar to how it looked in 1935. St. Elizabeth's was the first Federal Psychiatric Hospital in the U.S. It is now mostly abandoned.

Trivia
* On the second floor, the hackable terminal Nurse Station 02 mentions Seneca Clarkson in records regarding a severe groin pull suffered by a one Tom Mallone. Transcripts from the Concierge Terminal at the Statesman Hotel reveal Seneca Clarkson to be a prostitute regularly employed at the statesman, who was later killed by a client in suspicious circumstances.

Bugs

 * A player with exactly 60 Explosives skill may not be able to disarm the baby carriage trap; the game will still state that a 60 Explosives skill is necessary.
