The Pine Ridge Hospital (also known as the Pine Ridge Apartments) is a historic hospital in West Palm Beach, Florida, that served as a hospital between 1923 and 1956. It is located at 1401 Division Avenue.
The hospital was designed by West Palm Beach architects Harvey & Clarke and is not special architecturally. The hospital building was deemed historically significant at a local level for its role as the sole hospital serving African-Americans in West Palm Beach in the period up to the ending of segregation in the 1960s. It "was a well-known institution among blacks throughout the South" during the 1920s and 1930s.
On 26 January 2001, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
It is included in the Northwest Historic District.
