New Hospital Takes Shape in Plant City, Florida

The highest beam topped the newest building in Plant City, Florida, marking a construction milestone for the future South Florida Baptist Hospital. That steel beam was covered in messages from more than 100 supporters – from elected officials and business leaders to construction workers and hospital team members – who signed it before the ceremonial topping out.

When complete, the 420,000-square-foot hospital will be six floors tall with two, six-story towers. All 146 rooms will be private. The campus includes a medical office building for convenient access to physicians, as well as services including rehabilitation, imaging and wound care.
