Where is this building located & what was its purpose? Christina Brown Leal was born at the old Wilson County Hospital so she knew the answer. Christina adds that the building is located in Floresville Texas off 97 next to the Pecan Park. It's just a hollow building now. It was being turned into a boutique mall type place but that fell through so it's just sitting there with half demo done.
