In the News: Ohio State moving forward with $1.79 billion hospital tower

The Columbus Dispatch shared news this week of plans for a new inpatient hospital - one set to be The Ohio State University's largest project in history.
After extensive planning, the largest single facilities project ever undertaken at The Ohio State University seeks Board of Trustees approval this week. At 1.9 million-square-feet, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Inpatient Hospital will enhance leading-edge research, clinical training and world-class patient care.
Welcoming students and faculty to campus in the fall of 2020, phase one of The Biomedical and Materials Engineering Complex (BMEC)—the Mars G. Fontana Laboratories—will be the new home for two highly-ranked engineering departments.
According to The Columbus Dispatch, The Ohio State University is seeking Ohio Power and Siting Board approval for a combined heat and power plant.
Dr. Hal Paz, OSU executive vice president and chancellor for health affairs and medical center CEO, recently sat down with Columbus Business First to discuss many topics including ongoing construction plans for the Wexner Medical Center Inpatient Tower.
"One lesson we've all learned is that you need inpatient facilities," Paz said.
