The diagrams show Queen Mary Hospital at three different stages in its development: 1960, 1980 and 2000.

In 1960, the hospital was built close to a main road and next to a shopping centre. A large area behind the hospital was turned into a car park, while the area behind the shopping centre was farmland.

By 1980, the shopping centre had been demolished in order to make way for two additional hospital building which became a pharmacy and a cancer centre. Furthermore, the hospital gained the farmland and converted it into a nursing school.

In 2000, the main hospital building remained unchanged but the cancer centre was extended to cover the entire nursing school. As a result of this, the original car park was divided into two so that it provided a smaller car park and a small nursing school.

During this period, the hospital has increased in size and, in addition to a new nursing school, a cancer centre has been created and extended. Hence the capacity of the car park has been reduced by a half.

这些图显示了玛丽皇后医院发展的三个不同阶段：1960年，1980年和2000年。

1960年，医院建在一条主要道路附近，并在购物中心附近。医院后面的一个大区域变成了停车场，而购物中心后面的区域是农田。

到1980年，购物中心被拆除，以便为另外两座医院大楼腾出空间，这栋大楼后来成为药房和癌症中心。此外，医院获得了农田，并将其转变为护理学校。

2000年，主要医院大楼保持不变，但癌症中心扩大到覆盖整个护理学校。结果，原来的停车场被分为两个，从而提供了一个较小的停车场和一所小型护理学校。

在此期间，医院规模不断扩大，除新的护理学校外，还建立并扩大了一个癌症中心。因此，停车场的容量减少了一半。
