Leaders Celebrate Winter Park Memorial Hospital’s Nicholson Pavilion Topping Out

WINTER PARK, Fla. — Leaders from Winter Park and Florida Hospital gathered recently to celebrate a significant construction milestone at the Winter Park Memorial Hospital Nicholson Pavilion, located in Winter Park, Florida, which will add 140 all-private rooms and a new lobby when it opens next year.

The Nicholson Pavilion will allow the hospital to convert the majority of its existing rooms into private patient rooms. The expansion will also include private beds for orthopedic care, surgical and other services.

Crews from general contractor Brasfield & Gorrie hoisted a tree decorated with peacock feathers — Winter Park’s community symbol — atop the structure.

Crews have spent more than 40,000 hours working on the pavilion. Other construction notables on the project include:

  • 10,000 cubic yards of concrete
  • 979 tons of reinforcing steel
  • 373,000 square feet of formwork

RLF Architects is serving as architect on the project.
