Mortenson Tops Out Exempla Saint Joseph Heritage Project
Denver’s Mortenson Construction marked completion of the concrete and steel-frame construction of the Exempla Saint Joseph replacement hospital with a topping-out ceremony at the jobsite in Denver on April 18.
The new Saint Joseph replacement hospital is located adjacent to the current hospital campus east of downtown. The 831,327-sq-ft facility will be a full-service hospital housing all standard-care departments and services. The facility is being built to accommodate 348 patient beds and has a freestanding central utility plant that will serve the main hospital building and others on the campus. The hospital will have eight floors and a rooftop helipad and also includes a centerpiece chapel structure, central courtyard, balconies at every level and a rooftop garden.
