University of Kentucky Albert B. Chandler Hospital

Turner completed construction management services for this new $450 million, 1,000,000 sq. ft. patient care facility at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky. The hospital was finished in two phases, allowing for the step-by-step replacement of the existing hospital. The hospital project is the cornerstone for a new 20-year, $2.5 billion plan to construct an academic medical campus of the future. The hospital includes state-of-the-art space for emergency care, interventional care, imaging and surgery, including two towers of private patient rooms. Additional family support space includes waiting areas, food services, and a patient library. The project also includes a new parking garage with approximately 1,600 spaces. The UK Patient Care Facility is part of the new academic medical campus, which will include additional research buildings, a new shared health Sciences Learning Center, and additional buildings to house the programs of the colleges of medicine, dentistry, nursing, and health.
