Orlando (Fla.) Health is planning to build a hospital campus in southeast Orlando, according to the Orlando Business Journal.
The campus, which will be built on 15.1 acres of land, is expected to be completed in four phases. Phase 1 includes building a three-story, 42,000-square-foot freestanding emergency room. Construction has already begun on the facility and it is slated to open this summer.
The second phase would add inpatient beds to the campus. The proposal calls for building a 60-bed, 263,885-square-foot, five-story patient tower and a four-story parking garage. Construction is expected to take 14 months.
Phase 3, which is likely to begin four to six years after phase 2 is complete, includes a five-story, 60-bed tower on the west side of the campus and another four-story parking garage. Orlando Health said that this phase could be delayed based on market demand.
A fourth phase would include building a 30-bed East Tower addition and more parking space. No timeline was given for phase 4.
