Saint Elizabeth's Hospital is located in a 650,000 sf, state-of-the-art facility that incorporates best practices in modern, inpatient mental health care with an environmentally sensitive design and sustainable strategies. The building’s therapeutic design includes bright and airy living and treatment areas, green spaces off each patient unit, and enclosed courtyards. A 28,000 sf green roof is likely the largest on any psychiatric facility in the country.

A five-building, 650,000 sf development on the site of the historic campus in Ward 8 is set to feature a large public park, a hotel, affordable housing, a retail space featuring local businesses, and a chefs-in-residence program led by the José Andrés Group, per plans filed with the city.

FMC provided construction materials testing and third-party inspection services.
