Ground Breaks on War Memorial Replacement Hospital
(7/29/2010)
Valley Health and War Memorial Hospital officials broke ground on a $30 million replacement hospital and medical office building in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. The new 87,000-square-foot facility will offer 25 acute care/skilled beds and 16 long-term care beds, an expanded emergency department, more space for outpatient services, and upgraded technologies.
The project is designed to achieve LEED silver certification from the US Green Building Council. The replacement hospital is being constructed on an 80.5-acre site along Fairview Drive in Berkeley Springs, approximately 1.5 miles from the current facility.
Howard Shockey & Sons, Inc, of Winchester, VA is the Construction Manager. Perkins+Will is the project architect.
The new hospital and medical office building complex will be completed in the spring of 2012.
