A Sundt joint venture with DPR Construction will build the nine-story, 670,000-square-foot facility. The new tower replaces one that has been used for more than 40 years.

When the new tower opens in spring 2019, it will include:

  • A main entry, cafeteria and support departments on the first floor.
  • Diagnostic imaging, diagnostic cardiology, cardiac cath labs and interventional radiology on the second floor.
  • Operating rooms and patient prep/recovery space on the third floor.
  • 204 patient rooms in floors five through nine.
  • Shelled space on the ninth floor for 24 more patient rooms.

More than $50 million in new patient care equipment and computers are being added for state-of-the-art care.

Banner-UMC Tucson plays an important role in the health of Southern Arizona residents and visitors; it’s the only Level 1 Trauma Center in the region.

Updates and a webcam can be found on the project website.
