When McLaren Health Care needed to combine two existing hospitals into one new greenfield facility that could meet the capacity needs and transform the healthcare experience of Michigan’s capital city, they called upon Gresham Smith to oversee the project as the design architect from conceptual master planning to completion. Working with our design-build team, which included contractor joint venture Barton Malow/Christman and architect-of-record Harley Ellis Devereaux (HED), the team overcame labor and supply shortages caused by the COVID-19 pandemic to design and deliver the largest one-time construction investment in McLaren’s company history—the $258 million nine-story McLaren Greater Lansing Hospital. Adjacent to Michigan State University, the final product is a progressive approach to improving patient care environments that are highly advanced, efficient and will benefit the community for decades to come.
