Construction Begins on Oklahoma State University Medical Center Expansion

Construction has started on an expansion project in Tulsa, Oklahoma for Oklahoma State University Medical Center. The project is part of a $600-million medical campus expansion that includes a VA medical center, an inpatient mental health facility and the OSU Pharmaceutical Research Lab and Clinical Center. It is one of the largest construction projects in downtown Tulsa since the Williams Center in the 1970s.

Construction of the new 180,000-square-foot project followed a groundbreaking ceremony in early March. The four-story wing will connect to the new James Mountain Inhoff Veterans Medical Center via a 350-foot-long pedestrian sky bridge. Construction of the new expansion, which will include surgical and pharmaceutical research facilities, is expected to be complete in early 2028.

The expansion will also include a chapel, as well as eight operating rooms, three procedure rooms, a post-anesthesia care unit, a pre- and post-operative care unit and a surgery waiting area. The project team includes Dewberry and Flintco.
