KinkaidAlum Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 This is good news... Christus St. Jospeh's Hospital will be constructing an 8 story professional office building called Medical Place Two. It will be built at 1804 Austin near the corner of Caroline on a surface lot! It will be connected to the hospital building as well as to the Medical Place One Tower by a skybridge. The building will be just 80,000 square feet but anything is better than a surface lot, especially a solid employer like St. Joe's! (I was born there) Along with the announced 15 story tower (Midtown Medical Center) just across the Pierce Elevated, this area will be seeing some nice construction in the next few months. The scheduled completion date for Medical Place Two is Spring 2006 so it should be breaking ground fairly soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they'll never knock down the old, original hospital. The 15 story tower will add to the car-canyon effect on the Pierce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdude Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 First St. Joseph's: St. Joseph's Maternity Building. This was torn down a few years ago and replaced by a park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest danax Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 A park is fine but that Maternity building looks like another lost architectural treasure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
