Allegheny Health Network (AHN) and Highmark Health announced plans to build a full-service hospital in Cecil Township at the Southpointe II business park. The new approximately 150,000-square-foot facility will replace the current AHN Canonsburg Hospital and significantly expand access to advanced, comprehensive healthcare services for residents of the greater Washington County and southern Allegheny County regions.
Pending all necessary approvals, construction of the new facility is anticipated to start in early 2027, with an anticipated opening in 2029. The 10-acre property sits at the intersection of Town Center Way and Mylan Boulevard, overlooking I-79.
The new hospital will offer a broad spectrum of primary, emergency, surgical and critical care services, and the campus will also include a medical office building housing various physician offices and outpatient clinics. All clinical programs and medical staff at the facility will be seamlessly aligned with AHN’s clinical institutes.
AHN Canonsburg was established in 1904 and has operated at its current Medical Boulevard location since 1983.
The new AHN Canonsburg Hospital is projected to create hundreds of additional permanent healthcare jobs upon full operation, in addition to hundreds of construction jobs during its development. Approximately 400 current employees at AHN Canonsburg will transition to equivalent roles at the new facility, ensuring continuity of care and employment. Many of those clinicians will be tapped to help design elements of the new facility.
