Saint Francis Expanding

Saint Francis announced today that they will be adding on a new, eight story tower to their campus. These renderings look fantastic, and I hope we see construction starting very soon. (Expected completion is 2014.)

This will provide about 700 construction jobs, and 400 permanent jobs. It will also make the hospital eligible for being ranked a Level I Trauma Center instead of Level II. I'm glad to see them adding on again, and I wish that every new building in town had the quality of architecture that their new buildings do.
