The New Parkland Hospital Master Plan

The New Parkland Hospital project in Dallas is a $1.27-billion healthcare campus that includes replacement of the existing 56-year-old Parkland Memorial Hospital. The Parkland campus is located within the Southwestern Medical District and serves as a teaching hospital for the University of Texas Southwestern School of Medicine.
