The $2.5 billion project will replace Children’s Health’s main campus, called Children’s Medical Center Dallas, with a new 532-bed pediatric hospital.
The new facility will house a 90-bay emergency department, more than 90 newborn intensive care unit beds, and labor and delivery program with 30 beds.
Plans also call for a new administrative building, ambulatory care center with 250 exam rooms, utility plant, and parking facilities, according to the website dallasnews.com.
Construction is expected to begin in 2024 with completion slated in 2028.
