Set to open in 2017, our hospital’s expansion will include 149 new patient beds, six new surgical suites, 3.5 acres of healing gardens, and more. To date:
- 6,150 cubic yards of structural concrete have been poured. There will be 110,000 cubic yards in total, which would fill 500,000 bathtubs.
- 12 million pounds of reinforcing steel has been installed. There will be 20 million pounds in total — more than the Eiffel Tower!
- 36,250 truckloads of soil have been removed, enough to fill 2,700 backyard swimming pools.
