WOW!!!

 

The outpatient building at Grant & Livingston looks mighty fine.  But that office building (w/ ground floor retail) at Livingston & Parsons is just amazing!!  Kudos to Children's Hospital for getting rid of the KFC building formerly at the corner and putting this in its place.  You can barely see the huge hospital parking garage behind this new building.  Just WOW.

Livingston Ambulatory Center

Cost: $85 million

Size: Six stories, 200,000 square feet

Construction: Expected to begin in February 2015.

Where: Northeast corner of East Livingston Avenue and South Grant Avenue on 10 acres the hospital bought in 2013 from Columbus City Schools (the Columbus Africentric football field and parking lot) for $19.2 million.

Services: Plans call for the building to house ambulatory services such as primary care, dental services, behavioral health, dermatology, adolescent medicine, sports rehab, the Center for Healthy Weight and Nutrition and rotating clinics.  It’s expected to have more than 100,000 patient visits annually.

Faculty Office Building

Cost: $45 million

Size: Six stories, 150,000 square feet

Construction: Ground has been broken.

Where: Southeast corner of Livingston Avenue and Parsons Avenue on the site of a former KFC restaurant the hospital paid $2.25 million to acquire.

Services: It will house academic offices that will be relocated from the hospital’s main campus to accommodate growth in the medical staff.  There will also will be retail space in part of the first floor.

Note: A tunnel under Livingston Avenue will connect the hospital’s main campus to the building, the 1,800-space employee parking garage, the Center for Family Safety and Healing and the Ronald McDonald House.

Plus, these two new Children's Hospital building projects have local leaders excited about the spin-off development possibilities for the Parsons and Livingston Avenue corridors:

 

Nationwide Children’s expansion seen boosting Parsons and Livingston

By Evan Weese, Staff Reporter - Columbus Business First

UPDATED: Dec 31, 2014, 1:55pm EST

 

Nationwide Children's Hospital's $130 million campus expansion underway along Parsons and Livingston avenues has civic leaders visualizing the long-overdue revitalization of those corridors.

 

The hospital's $85 million ambulatory center - to break ground in February - and an under-construction $45 million office building are major investments on their own, but the prospect of additional development has Bob Leighty, executive director of the Parsons Avenue Merchants Association, excited for the historically blighted north-south Parsons Avenue.

The Ronald McDonald House across Livingston Avenue from Children's Hospital just finished a 57 room expansion.  The Nationwide Children's Hospital Ronald McDonald House now has 137 guest rooms, a commercial kitchen, a rooftop garden and five separate houses for families facing long hospital stays.

Some more about the Ronald McDonald House that serves the Nationwide Children's Hospital.  When the NHL All-Star Game was in town, the NHL and the Blue Jackets unveiled a hockey-themed treehouse play area in the Ronald McDonald House:

Not to be a downer and glad that the expansion is taking place, and I know that narrow strip is not ideal, but did they have to design it like a midrise strip mall with everything at the edges and surface parking at the center? At least it is not connected to the other part by a skywalk lol. But this will do nothing for Livingston and the other side is right up to the street. Oh well. Such is life.

The Dispatch rendering posted by Pablo does seem to indicate a large surface parking lot between the planned 8-story Behavioral Health building and Livingston Avenue.  However, if you look at the rendering below from http://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/news/2016/06/10/nationwide-childrens-launching-730-million.html that was taken from the Children's Hospital presentation and the Dispatch video below, which also includes renderings from the hospital's presentation, the "parking lot area" is handled differently:

 

nationwide-childrens-hospital-expansion-final-aerial-view*750xx4000-2250-0-0.jpg

 

 

In the hospital's presentation, the "parking lot area" in the Dispatch rendering seems to be open green space.  Of course, this could just be the hospital's way of downplaying a surface parking lot in front of the planned 8-story Behavioral Health building.  But the structures on either side of the planned building are listed as "Parking Garage for Livingston Ambulatory Center" and "Parking Garage for Behavioral Health".  So if two parking garages are being built for the two Children's Hospital buildings at this site, why would a large surface parking lot also be necessary?

 

Now, some convenience surface parking or drop-off areas might be planned for this site.  But it looks like the hospital is committing to structured parking handling the lion's share of parking demand there.  So I wonder if the Dispatch's graphics guy used some artistic license with their depiction of the surface parking lot.

Agreed with Toddguy[/member] that I'm a little disappointed in the layouts they decided on for the block west of the main hospital... But, NCH is also showing with this plan that they can do good urban infill as well, when it suits them too.

 

The office building going up now at Parsons/Livingston is probably the best example, especially with the inclusion of ground floor retail. The new admin building on 18th St across the freeway also looks like it will be similarly appropriate for its context.

 

All in all, the plan is not bad IMO. Especially since it is building on already vacant land and that it includes NCH pledging to respect the residential neighborhoods to the south and east, as well as continuing to fund home renovations and employee incentives to buy in the area. It's not perfect, but it really could be a lot worse - (just look at the Cleveland Clinic thread).

I hope you are right. Also I just noticed that the Dispatch rendering has a massive tunnel for 70(look at that weird thing..it is like a tunnel snaking into a bigger tunnel) so I am not going to trust that.

Big Lots pledges $50M to Nationwide Children's Hospital for behavioral health hospital and research

 

nationwide-childrens-big-lots-behavioral-health-pavilion-artists-rendering-3*750xx1028-578-0-2.jpg

 

Big Lots Inc. announced a $50 million, 10-year pledge to Nationwide Children's Hospital for its behavioral health programs, gaining naming rights to both the clinical department and a planned pediatric psychiatric hospital on the Columbus campus.

 

It's quite a splashy debut in philanthropy: The Columbus retailer first established a corporate charitable foundation last year.

Pretty awesome comment from CEO David Campisi:

 

"Let's get on the offensive on this care," Campisi said. "We can get to these kids early and get them help and have beds for them instead of sending them home when therapists know we shouldn't.

 

"People will stand up and talk about cancer and whether they had it or someone they loved had it, (but) it's not OK to talk about mental health issues," he said. "We want to break that barrier at Big Lots. ... We felt very compelled we need to be part of this journey to allow friends and family to talk about it, whether it's an eating disorder or autism or suicide, to speak out about it and not feel ashamed."

Nationwide Children's Hospital may extend parking underneath park – but not any time soon

 

livingston-park-master-plan1*750xx10050-5652-0-0.jpg

 

As it expands again, Nationwide Children's Hospital may extend its underground parking beneath Livingston Park – but not any time soon.

 

Columbus City Council approved an easement for the pediatric hospital Monday for an eventual parking structure underneath the park. The hospital has underground parking now, beneath new green space it created to the west of the park as part of its 2012 expansion.

Children's Hospital broke ground today on the Big Lots Behavioral Health Pavilion.  The Big Lots Behavioral Health Pavilion will be a nine-story, 386,000 square foot building that will serve as the centerpiece of Children's Hospital western campus expansion along Livingston Avenue.  Below is more information about the new building and two new renderings for this project:

Rooftop playground and courtyards encourage interaction at Nationwide Children's upcoming psychiatric hospital

 

Rooftop play areas and sunny courtyards are among features to stimulate group activities and interaction at what’s set to become the largest pediatric psychiatric hospital in the U.S.

 

Nationwide Children’s Hospital has begun construction of the $158 million, nine-story Big Lots Behavioral Health Pavilion, which will encompass inpatient and outpatient care, research and education. The 386,000-square-foot building will have 48 private rooms, with room to add more, and another 26 beds in crisis units.

Children's Hospital completed their $45 million six-story Faculty Office Building at the southeast corner of Livingston and Parsons Avenues earlier this year.  I previously posted lots of construction pics for this project earlier, but hadn't posted any pics of the completed building.  So here they are...

 

But first, an aerial overview of the location.  Google doesn't have an updated aerial with the new building, so here's an older aerial of the Livingston and Parsons site prior to construction.  The site is located across Livingston Avenue from the main hospital campus.  The new six-story office building replaces a former KFC at this corner that a hospital parking garage was built around.  This aerial shows the site after the hospital purchased and demo'd the KFC for temporary green space:

35496769446_a64a394c25_b_d.jpg

 

 

The new six-story Faculty Office Building contains 150,000 sq. ft. of office space for Children's Hospital at the southeast corner of Livingston and Parsons:

The ground floor includes a Panera Bread restaurant:

Here is an elevation of the Livingston Avenue side that faces the main hospital campus:

35149042370_cdb2147cee_b_d.jpg

 

 

As part of the overall project, a median and signalized pedestrian crossing was added at Livingston Avenue near the parking garage entrance:

35496757956_7b7787c442_b_d.jpg

 

 

A tunnel was also added under Livingston Avenue that connects the new Faculty Office Building and the Main Hospital Campus:

The Children's Hospital westward expansion along Livingston Avenue - and located between I-70 and German Village - is continuing.  Children's Hospital has purchased the Columbus City Schools’ former Africentric School and the 18-acre school site west of Grant Avenue for $15.025 million.  The hospital had paid $19.2 million in 2013 for the former school’s athletic fields east of Grant Avenue, which it has used for its most recent expansion -- shown at https://www.urbanohio.com/forum/index.php/topic,5836.msg806051.html#msg806051 and https://www.urbanohio.com/forum/index.php/topic,5836.msg859962.html#msg859962 in this thread.

 

The hospital's immediate plan for the site is the demolition of the 127,900 square-foot school building built in the 1960's and its replacement with surface parking:

The former Africentric School Building at 300 E. Livingston Avenue that Children's Hospital purchased last year is now being demolished.  The Dispatch had a photo of the building's demolition in its Saturday print version.  The building was purchased along with its property west of Grant Avenue as part of Children's Hospital westward expansion along Livingston Avenue.  After the building's demolition, the property will be initially used as a surface parking lot to support the new West Campus being built east of Grant Avenue:

When we talk about the many projects that Children's Hospital had undertaken over the past decade, we are usually talking about construction projects on the hospital's original campus at the northeast corner of Parsons & Livingston or their campus expansion west along Livingston Avenue.  This article at CityLab looks at another type of development that Children's Hospital has been undertaking in the neighborhoods surrounding the hospital.

 

As the CityLab article states it:  "About a decade ago, Nationwide Children’s Hospital embarked on a project to transform the adjacent area.  The medical institution pumped investments into housing improvements in the surrounding community as part of an audacious effort to create a healthier environment for residents."

The $158 million, nine-story, 386,000 square foot building that will serve as the centerpiece of Children's Hospital western campus expansion along Livingston Avenue looks mostly finished on the outside.  But the Big Lots Behavioral Health Pavilion, that will be a clinical department and a pediatric psychiatric hospital, still has work to do on the inside:

An unnamed building under construction next to the Behavioral Health Pavilion on the Children's Hospital western campus.  Based on the previously posted master plan for this campus, it could be the data center:

NBBJ has filed a Preliminary Plan Review application for a new 7-story research building on the NCH Campus. 

 

image.thumb.png.8e99d1e20d4edda95b9a127243e70ed8.png

 

Based on the description and the address, it appears to be building number 6 from the strategic plan map for the campus.

Here is a screenshot from a video NCH made explaining the strategic plan. I believe the green building on the left is what will be built. It appears to have 7-stories in this conceptual rendering.

As an aside, I hate those parking lots. I understand them but I wish they would at least go subterranean for them. Such a bad aesthetic for revitalizing Livingston.

I completely agree. Hopefully we will see them developed at some point. I'm sure a hotel would work well here due to the large number of families that travel in from outside the metro area. I'm sure NCH also has a decent amount of business travel into the hospital that could utilize a hotel. Some restaurant space could also be very successful.

While I agree, I think it could be a safety barrier of sorts.  I could also see where they develop them in the future because they are going to be completely landlocked when this master plan is finished.

Definitely a possibility. They could also build "future office space" and then actually build out the space once they need it. They've done that with a few of their buildings already.

 

Regardless, the long term plan should not be to have surface lots fronting Livingston.

Based on the description and the address, it appears to be building number 6 from the strategic plan map for the campus.

An engineering application has been filed today for this building. Hopefully this means we will get some official news fairly soon.
