The University of Virginia Health System is expanding and renovating its Charlottesville hospital. Designed by Perkins+Will, the LEED Silver project includes construction of a 15-story, 531,000-sf tower and renovation of 86,000 sf of existing space. Site work began in June of 2015, and Skanska USA was awarded the $142 million construction management contract in December of 2016. The project team is utilizing four-dimensional modeling and electronic construction documentation in the delivery of the project, during which the existing hospital will remain fully operational. The tower is slated for occupancy in late 2019 with the renovation reaching completion by December of 2020.
