Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta is planning an extensive new campus to transform the way pediatric healthcare will be delivered to future generations, according to an article on the Healthcare Construction + Operations News website.
The new campus and hospital will replace the organization’s current location. The $1 billion project will include a 446-bed hospital, a pediatrics center with support buildings, and an additional 20-plus acre of green space that will create miles of walking trails and paths.
The Center of Advanced Pediatrics will open its doors this summer, allowing Children’s to meet the anticipated pediatric population growth. The completion of the entire project is slated for 2026.
The patient beds will be held in two towers, with an accompanying medical office building and adjoined cancer and blood disorders center. This will also include additional structures featuring a central energy plant that will allow for efficient and sustainable energy on site as well as parking decks.
