A groundbreaking event was recently held for a new surgical and critical care facility at Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is the largest facilities project in Allina Health’s history. The new facility will reimagine the hospital campus, revitalize infrastructure and optimize essential services. The project team includes HGA and Mortenson.
The facility is scheduled to be complete in 2026 and is part of a campus improvement plan taking place over a 10-year period. The surgical and critical care building converts Abbott Northwestern Hospital’s Founder’s Mall into a welcoming arrival garden.
When complete, the addition will include 192 new beds, 30 new operating rooms and over 500,000 square feet of new construction on a tight, urban site in the center of an operating campus. The design of the building complements a traditional urban campus with a fresh new look, melding into the existing architecture.
