What you see here is a night shot of the construction site for the DeVos Children’s Hospital, which is located on the Butterworth campus of Spectrum Health. I had the honor of touring the site earlier this fall and was blown away at the thought and detail that is going into the facility. I’ll write more about the 14-story, 440,000 square foot, $286 million project when it’s closer to completion, but if you want to get the latest, Trillium Hibbein just started a new blog to keep you up to date.
Basically, the concept for the children’s hospital revolves around generating input from the best-of-the-best physicians, architects, and other experts related to healthcare and then creating a hospital based on delivering the ultimate in care for children. No detail was spared, and it’s going to be so much more than the incredibly cool building that is well underway.
The promise is to transform children’s healthcare in West Michigan, and it will.
