Surgical Suites/Open MRI

The construction of the new Surgical Suites/ Open MRI is making headway. Most of the walls are in place and painting has begun in some areas. This new area is expected to be operational by April 1, 2010. 

Construction of the flood wall is moving along very quickly. You may have noticed a big crane out by the cooling tower on Thursday, November 12th as we set the concrete vault for the pump stations.

The pump stations are used for general drainage and to pump out rain water, as well as any other water that gets inside the flood wall in the event of a flood.

Excavation has begun in the area parallel to the DePaul and Ozanam entrances. There will be some work in the road way in the upcoming couple of weeks that will impact traffic flow. More information will be provided as the construction progresses.
