Engelberth Construction managing $21m addition/renovation project

Engelberth Construction, Inc. is currently managing the construction of a $21 million, 20-month building and renovation project for New London Hospital. The 46,000 s/f medical office building addition and 12,500 s/f of renovations will unify and update the 50-year old campus. The project includes a new main entrance for outpatient and inpatient registration and services, while the existing entrance will serve emergency department visits only. Renovated space will include thirteen private inpatient rooms and support space for the medical surgical unit and a chapel, in addition to expanded clinical space for hospital specialty services. The oldest section of the existing medical office building will be demolished, while the remaining portion will be renovated to accommodate pediatrics, which currently is off site, and administrative spaces relocated from the hospital building. The first floor of the new addition will house space for a physical rehabilitation center, currently off site, leased provider space, eight new private inpatient rooms with support spaces and indoor access to the mobile MRI unit. The second floor will allow space for the hospital's provider practices. As part of the improvement project 100 additional parking spaces are being added.
