The groundbreaking ceremony for Fort Leonard Wood’s new 235,400-square-foot hospital is set to occur on June 22, Guidon reports.  

The facility will feature a 193,300-square-foot clinic, central utility plant, emergency back-up generators, five-bay ambulance garage, helipad and supporting facilities. 

The $295 million design-build contract was awarded to Kansas City, Missouri based firm JE Dunn Construction with RLF Architects of Orlando, Florida in August of 2019. 

“The military is committed to providing those who serve with world-class healthcare services and facilities, and we are thrilled to help them execute their mission,” said Craig Stearns, Federal Group Leader for JE Dunn Construction. 

Construction is expected to finish in fall of 2024.
