LVH–Cedar Crest Construction Update

More parking is what we need. More parking is what we’ll get.

Crews have begun to level ground around the parking deck along Cedar Crest Boulevard for a new parking lot. “It will provide 155 additional spaces when it’s complete this winter,” says project manager Greg Marushak.

Much of the dirt being used to level this area comes from the south end of the campus. “A detention area is being created between the hospital property and our neighbors to address drainage issues in their neighborhood,” Marushak says. Watch for construction vehicles transporting soil between these areas.

Because of this construction, we had to remove many trees in this area. For everyone’s protection, fencing has been installed along the property line where the detention basin is being created. To shield neighbors from headlight glare, blue fabric has been added to the fence from the Children’s Ear;y Care and Education Center to the physician parking lot entrance.

Here’s where else you’ll notice construction activity this month:

The Center for Advanced Health Care—The drywall is being installed and the office space is beginning to take shape.

Front parking deck—The concrete washes, which sculpt the areas where concrete panels meet, are being applied. The ramp walls and top floor lighting fixtures are being installed.

Pedestrian bridge—Inside, the electrical and HVAC system is being installed. Outside, watch for lane closures while the windows and signage are installed.
