Banner-University Medical Center is building a new, $400 million, nine-story tower that will replace the 40-year-old hospital now at the center's Tucson campus, according to an article on the Construction Equipment Guide website.
The new hospital is scheduled to open in 2019.
The building will top out at nine stories initially, but the project is designed to add two additional floors in the future.
Banner is spending an additional $100 million to build a new outpatient clinic next door to the Peter and Paula Fasseas Cancer Clinic on the Banner-University Medical Center North Campus.
