A new healthcare facility will be coming to the beach!
The St. Joe Company announced that they will be partnering with the Florida State University College of Medicine and Tallahassee Memorial hospital to build what will be more than just a medical center.
Gonzalez said it will be a full medical facility with many aspects to it. He said the campus will have doctors offices, urgent care and a 100-bed hospital.
“It’s a healthcare campus with clinical, research, and teaching components,” said Gonzalez.
Components Gonzalez said are very important to the project. FSU intends to utilize the campus for research, as well as residency programs. Something Sheldon said will be top-notch.
Another benefit of the healthcare campus is its location. It will be close to the airport in case a life flight is ever needed, St. Joe plans to break ground in 2022.
The 87-acre campus will be located at the intersection of Highway 79 and minutes away from Latitude Margaritaville Watersound. Phillip Griffitts Senior Parkway, and will include an emergency center, research area, and clinical components.
They are expected to break ground in early 2022 and hope to have a finished campus in 2023.
