I stumbled across this project while enjoying our beautiful Colorado weather this week. I noticed a red crane around Uptown that I haven’t seen before. Bound between 18th Avenue, 20th Avenue & Downing Street, Marion Street the Exempla Healthcare’s new Saint Joseph replacement hospital is being built. Check out the full details over at Mortenson, who is the construction manager of this project.
Nothing has gone vertical yet but there’s a lot of utility relocation, ground work, and obviously the two red cranes that will be on this site. On the right you can see the total size of the site. It’s not small by any means.
This project will cost a total of $367,000,000. This will be a 831,000 square foot space which will feature 348 patient beds, a roof top helipad, centerpiece chapel structure, central courtyard, and a roof top garden. It will also include a free standing utility plant, as well as two parking structures.
