In June 2021, the system's Manhattan Campus was renamed after Margaret Cochran Corbin, who fought in the Battle of Fort Washington during the American Revolutionary War. It was the first such facility in the United States to be named after a woman veteran.[3] A bill to rename the facility was introduced to Congress by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney; the bill was signed into law in January 2021.[4][5]
