After months of designing and planning, construction has officially started on the new Dean Clinic and St. Mary’s Janesville Hospital campus!

 
Starting Monday, October 19th you can catch a glimpse of all the action at the intersection of Highway 11 and Interstate 90. Trucks are moving earth and preparing the site for construction. The project takes approximately 24 months to complete and is expected to open at the end of 2011.

 
Working on the project is Cogdell Spencer ERDMAN, along with Shepley Bulfinch of Boston and J.P. Cullen & Sons, Inc. of Janesville. They are putting the finishing touches on the design of the buildings. Dean and SSM Health Care of Wisconsin are very proud to draw upon talented members of the local workforce.  J.P. Cullen & Sons, Inc. is based in Janesville and employs more than 450 people. About 200 of those employees live here in Rock County.

 
St. Mary’s Janesville Hospital and Dean Clinic in Janesville will be adding hundreds of jobs to the area and those jobs in turn will spur the creation of other indirect jobs in the community.  Check back for photos of the construction site in the days, weeks and months ahead!
