NEW ST. PAUL’S HOSPITAL
2024 Top100 Projects Rank: 37 Value: $2.3 billion
TWO YEARS AGO, a 15-metre hole sat at the
bottom of the new St. Paul’s Hospital site in
Vancouver. Today, a sprawling hospital soars
11-storeys high with bridges connecting the
East and West towers.
“We poured the 昀椀nal concrete on the roof
and topped out the building this summer; it
looks great,” said Kevin Little, senior manager for Design & Project Delivery with the
New St. Paul’s Hospital Project Team.
With the hospital now standing at full
height, crews are busy working on exterior 昀椀nishes and interior drywall and major
equipment work for the rest of 2024; then it’s
onto interior 昀椀nishes and landscaping. The
hospital will open to patients in 2027.
Currently, 1,400 tradespeople work on
site each day, and that number is expected to
swell to 1,600 at the peak of construction. By
the time construction completes in 2026, PCL
estimates that more than 10,000 tradespeople will have worked on the hospital at one
time or another.
