Coney Island Hospital plans to add a gigantic new building to its campus, according to an article on the Real Deal website.
The healthcare facility filed plans with Brooklyn's Department of Buildings to construct a 10-story building that would include about 903,000 square feet.
The project will serve as the hospital’s new resilient critical services building and include an emergency department on the second floor, along with a pharmacy and laboratory.
Funding for the building comes from a $1.6 billion Federal Emergency Management Agency grant that New York City’s public hospitals received in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
