The series debuted on April 1, 1963.

General Hospital celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2013 and is the longest running daytime drama in the US.

It is the longest-running US soap still in production, and may surpass As the World Turns (1956-2010) and Guiding Light on TV (Guiding Light ran 1937-1952 on radio, 1952-2009 on TV ).

Where is Manhattan general hospital in New York city in 1962 did it close?

I was born at the Manhattan General Hospital in 1936. I believe it was located at 23rd St. and 2nd Avenue. I'm not sure how long it's been gone. I too was born there, in 1945, and my father was born there in 1916. It became part of Beth Israel - another Wikipedia item says that was in 1964. It is now a condo or coop. Beth Israel sold it to developers in the 1980s or 1990s. My birth certificate, and my father's identify it as Manhattan Hospital, rather than Manhattan General.
