Dayton Children’s in Ohio plans another major expansion of its main hospital campus, and the proposed project recently won a key approval and has been recommended for a needed zoning change, the Dayton Daily News reports.
The planned $100 million behavioral health center will help address a rapidly growing need for pediatric mental health services, officials say.
The project also will continue to transform a hospital campus that has seen more than $375 million in new investment in the last decade.
Dayton Children’s wants to build a new behavioral health center on a former industrial site located immediately northeast of its main campus in Old North Dayton.
The new center will be three stories and about 110,000 square feet.
The hospital hopes to break ground on the facility in early 2023 and open it to patients in the first quarter of 2025. Read more.
