Great Progress on New Building

The contractors are moving at a swift pace to install the structual steel this week. Soon after the arrival of a 300-foot crane on site, the steel was moved into place and crews began erecting the structural steel pieces for the new hospital. By week’s end, the site was transformed.

In the meantime, workers are completing abatement at the Laurel Grove Hospital site prior to deconstruction of the biulding next week. In the construction zone, workers are completing intensive work on the elevator pit as well as the new ramp for the parking garage. In the coming weeks, drivers will be able to access the parking garage directly from the main hospital driveway for convenient parking and access to the existing hospital and the future hospital.
