The plan for Coney Island Hospital’s new 11-story, 350,000-square-foot renovation project has advanced from the NYC Health + Hospitals review committee to the full council, according to an article on The Real Deal website.
The hospital plans to spend $738 million on the development, which aims to fix flooding damage from Superstorm Sandy.
The hospital will renovate its main building, which was built in 1954, and demolish an older building damaged in the hurricane.
The project will also include the installation of a flood wall around the campus and a new critical services tower with a flood-resistant emergency department.
