Norwood Hospital
Norwood Hospital

Norwood Hospital is a hospital in Norwood, Massachusetts founded as Willett Cottage Hospital in 1902. It is a member of Steward Health Care. On June 28, 2020, a bad rain storm hit the town of Norwood. Most of South Norwood was flooded with more than 5 inches of rain pouring down in less than a few hours. The hospital, located in South Norwood, lost all power and had to evacuate 80-90 people at 10:00pm. The people were brought to other hospitals, and the hospital sat with its power out. In September of that year, The Weather Channel showed footage from the hospital, of water at the door, bursting in, and going through the hallway. After the incident, Steward Health Care System announced that the hospital would be rebuilt as a “state of the art” hospital, that would open late 2023. As of November 2022, the old hospital has been fully demolished.

Norwood Central station
Norwood Central station

Norwood Central station is an MBTA Commuter Rail Franklin/Foxboro Line station located near downtown Norwood, Massachusetts. The station has two side platforms serving the two tracks of the Franklin Branch, each with a mini-high section for accessibility. It serves as a park-and-ride location for Boston's southwest suburbs; with 1,041 daily riders it is the busiest station on the line outside Boston. The former station building, a one-story yellow brick structure, has been converted to commercial use. The Norfolk County Railroad opened through South Dedham (now Norwood) in 1849. Dedham Middle station opened around 1852, and a small station building was constructed in 1865. The station was renamed Norwood Central in 1872. In 1875, the line became part of the New York and New England Railroad (NY&NE), which built its main shops adjacent to Norwood Central. The Old Colony Railroad opened its Wrentham Branch to Norwood in 1892. The New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad leased the Old Colony in 1893 and obtained control of the NY&NE in 1895. The New Haven eliminated an adjacent grade crossing in 1896 and built a new station structure in 1899, ending a decade-long controversy. As rail travel declined, Norwood Shops closed around 1930 and Wrentham Branch service ended in 1938. The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) began subsidizing service in 1966 and purchased the line in 1973. Under the MBTA, renovations to the station were made around 1977 and 1990. Along with Franklin Line commuter rail service, Norwood Central was a stop for Foxboro Stadium special events trains from 1986 to 1988 and 1995 to 2010.
