The Society for the Lying-In Hospital, now known as Rutherford Place, at 305 Second Avenue between East 17th and 18th Streets in the Stuyvesant Square neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, was a maternity hospital built in 1902 and designed by noted architect R. H. Robertson in the Renaissance Revival style, with a Palladian crown at the top. Swaddled babies decorate the spandrels of the building, which was converted to offices and apartments in 1985 by Beyer Blinder Belle.[2]

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
