The BEACON Project

On June 12, 2012 we at Good Samaritan Hospital broke ground on our BEACON Project (Building Excellence Around Communities, Opportunities and Needs). The project encompasses a 120-bed, five-story inpatient tower, a redesign of key health care service areas and upgrade of the hospital's critical engineering systems. The new inpatient tower will feature state-of-the-art heart and obstetrics centers. Renovations will be made to the Columbian Towers for department offices and three floors of the Health Pavilion will be redesigned to make way for physician offices and an improved orthopedics area. A new conference room will also be added on what is now the existing physician's parking lot. The project also calls for the demolition of the hospital's carpenter shop and fitness center, as well as the Memorial, Gibault and Willis buildings.

Good Samaritan Hospital is working with BSA LifeStructures of Indianapolis as the architect/engineer on the project and Hunt Construction Group of Indianapolis as the Construction Manager on the BEACON Project. BSA LifeStructures has worked with Good Samaritan Hospital on several projects over that last 20 years, including the most recent Cancer Pavilion. Hunt boasts an impressive resume having built the Indianapolis Colts home, Lucas Oil Stadium, and the 1.5 million square-foot, $641 million USC Med Center in Los Angeles.

The new inpatient tower is estimated to be complete by the end of 2014, with the entire project completion by mid 2016.
