Mount Sinai Medical Center, located in Miami, Florida, recently topped out its 154-bed surgical tower addition project as the final beam was raised.
Construction began in August 2016 to address the expanding healthcare needs of both Miami and Miami Beach residents and visitors. The 340,000-square-foot expansion will bring a new surgical tower and emergency department to the main campus and enhance Mount Sinai’s ability to deliver high-quality medical care to patients in its diverse community.
Specifically, the new emergency department spans 35,000 square feet across 50 treatment bays and essentially triples the size of Mount Sinai’s existing facility to accommodate up to 75,000 annual patient visits. Equipped with 154 private rooms, including larger VIP suites and 12 large contemporary operating rooms, the new patient tower offers striking views of nearby Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. The project also includes a new public lobby, revised vehicular traffic patterns and new parking space. The architect for the new facility is Cannon Design, and is being constructed by Robins & Morton with construction management by ADAMS.
Construction is targeted for completion in fall 2018.
