Clifton Campus Expansion
If you’ve been on the Clifton Campus, you’ve noticed a lot of construction happening! The variety of projects taking place are preparing for the arrival of the new hospital tower, which will provide additional beds and clinical space on the Clifton Campus. This patient- and family-centered facility includes:
- 210 patient beds
- Operating rooms
- Diagnostic and treatment spaces
- ICU rooms
- General Med/Surg rooms
- 400-600 underground parking spaces
When the tower project is complete, we will close 82 patient rooms in the oldest part of Emory University Hospital (EUH,) as they no longer meet our growing technological needs. The new hospital tower will connect to EUH via a two-level pedestrian bridge, with one level primarily used for patient transport. The building will also connect to The Emory Clinic Buildings A, B and C (Winship), as well as the Lowergate Parking Deck.
Before beginning construction on the tower, we needed to improve access in and around EUH and the TEC buildings. The following construction projects are all paving the way for the new hospital tower:
- Reconfiguration of valet area outside of TEC A
- Raised concourse (two-level pedestrian bridge) from Lowergate parking deck to TEC A
- Widening of EUH valet lanes
- Lowergate parking deck improvements
- Woodruff Circle redesign
These projects will free up much of the traffic congestion on the Clifton Campus, making way for the additional volume we can expect once the tower is complete.
