In addition, a new entry court and a below-grade parking garage will be constructed. The Cardiovascular & Critical Care Tower will include 320 adult beds, 44 operating and interventional procedure rooms, an adult emergency department, and associated support space. The Children's & Maternal Hospital will include 205 pediatric beds, a pediatric emergency department, ten operating rooms, labor and delivery suites, 35 post/ante partum beds and associated support space. The project is expected to be completed in fall of 2008.
