Initial site work is set to commence in the coming months for a new mixed-use hospital complex at 3201 W 31st Street in Little Village. Dubbed ‘Focal Point Community Campus’, the project will serve as the new home for St. Anthony hospital as its current location continues to age. Efforts are being led by the hospital and Chicago Southwest Development Corp.
A new hospital has been announced on the northern end of the upcoming Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park. Approved by the Chicago City Council last week, the 400-acre redevelopment of the former South Works site has now picked up another tenant as Advocate Health Care has pledged to spend $1 billion in the next decade across multiple projects.
Exterior work is nearing completion on the Rush North and Harlem Outpatient Center, located at 1625 North Harlem Avenue, in the Austin Community Area. General contractor Novak Construction continues adding detail outside the building, even as work ramps up on the medical facilities inside.
Exterior construction for the Northwestern Medicine Bronzeville Outpatient Center at 4822 South Cottage Grove Avenue, in the Grand Boulevard Community Area continues to progress toward completion. Much of the cladding for the parking structure at the south end of the facility is up, as is most of the glass curtain well around the office and patient care areas at the north end. Significant interior work remains, as healthcare-specific preparations require considerably more time to implement than standard construction.
Structural steel is rising into shape for the AbbVie Foundation Cancer Pavilion at the University of Chicago in Hyde Park. General contractor Turner Construction has the steel up to the underside of the fourth and fifth levels as it begins to wrap around the twin concrete cores.
