Choate eventually moved to Westchester County, New York, where he established his own sanitarium. Choate added a wing to his house for use of his sanitarium to house patients being treated for mental and nervous disorders. One of Choate's most famous patients was politician and New-York Tribune founder Horace Greeley. Following his defeat for the presidency of the United States in 1872, Greeley checked into Choate’s sanitarium, where he died a few weeks later.
Choate died in 1896, but his sanitarium remained open for another decade.[3] In 1909, Choate's widow had the wing her husband had constructed moved to its present location—just a stone's throw away from its former location—using horses, and at an inch at a time, it took about six months to move. Mrs. Choate lived there until her death, at age 95, in 1926. Today, Choate's sanitarium is now "Marks Hall",[4] and his former residence is now known as "Choate House", both of which are located on the Pleasantville campus of Pace University.[3]
