Construction Starts on Henry Ford Health Detroit $2B Hospital Expansion Project

On the same block where Henry Ford Hospital first opened its doors nearly 110 years ago, Henry Ford Health team members, patients, neighbors and partners celebrated the official construction launch of its major Detroit, Michigan campus expansion, known as Destination: Grand. The project will be Henry Ford Health’s most significant investment in the city to date, and the single largest healthcare investment in Detroit’s history.

The $2.2-billion expansion plan is anchored by a new hospital facility that will span 1.2 million square feet on the south side of West Grand Boulevard, directly across the street from the legacy campus, which will remain in operation. The facility includes a 20-story patient tower, with three floors dedicated to providing intensive inpatient physical medicine and rehabilitation in partnership with the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab.

The new hospital facility is expected to open its doors to patients in 2029. The project team includes HDR, Tsoi Kobus Design and Hamilton Anderson, along with construction partners Barton Malow, Turner Construction and Dixon Construction Services.
