Chris Evert Children's Hospital in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., will get a new name — The Salah Foundation Children's Hospital at Broward Health — and $52 million in renovations, according to an article on the Sun Sentinel website.
The renovations will include redecorating the hospital in an under-the-sea theme. The walls, floors and furniture will bear aquatic color schemes and depictions of marine life, like turtles and seahorses.

So as not to disrupt patient care, construction in the pediatric floors will be done in two phases.
