LVH–Cedar Crest Construction Update

Your Role in Our Construction Plans

Over a five-week period, crews will install 298 precast concrete panels weighing 1,075 tons to the exterior of the Center for Ambulatory Medicine. Every panel is poured, formed and colored off-site and is ready for installation upon delivery. The panels will create the building's exterior walls.

New buildings, parking decks and walkways are taking shape. But as the LVH–Cedar Crest expansion project continues, we need your help to make the process run smoothly.

Kasych Family Pavilion—With steel erection scheduled for late February, truck traffic will be heavy on the campus’ western end. By using designated pedestrian walkways, you can make the ring road safer for motorists.

Front parking decks—The relocation of the water, sewer and storm lines in front of the hospital has affected visitor parking.

You can:

• Tell patients and visitors to use our free and expanded valet parking service. To lessen wait time, have them call security at ext. 8220 to retrieve their vehicle before leaving their appointment.
• Notify security when planning a meeting on campus that will require extra parking or consider holding it at LVH–17th and Chew or LVH–Muhlenberg.
• Notify patients that handicapped spaces are now located along the western end of the main entrance drive.

Center for Ambulatory Medicine—As crews install exterior panels and lay the foundation for a pedestrian walkway connecting the John and Dorothy Morgan Cancer Center (JDMCC), you should:

• Be aware of truck traffic and changes in traffic patterns.
• Inform patients to use the nearby 1230 medical office building entrance due to the temporary closure of the JDMCC east entrance.
