History
Maryview has been at the same High Street location since its dedication on March 4, 1945.
The need for a new medical facility in Portsmouth was critical when World War II brought thousands of shipyard workers and their families to the area in the early 1940s. The hospital was initially called Glensheallah Hospital and was funded by the Federal Government. After the war, the government sold the hospital for $85,000 to the Catholic Church's Diocese of Richmond, which agreed to operate the hospital with the Daughters of Wisdom.{{Cite web |title=50 YEARS OF HEALING |url=https://scholar.lib.vt.edu/VA-news/VA-Pilot/issues/1995/vp950303/03020156.htm |access-date=2025-02-17 |website=scholar.lib.vt.edu}}
