7691 Poplar Ave.
Germantown, TN 38138
Permit Amount: $50.9 million
Project Cost: $80 million
Permit Date: Applied February 2008
Completion: 2011
Owner: Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital
Tenant: Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital
Architect: TRO Jung/Brennen Inc.
Contractor: Flintco Inc.
Details: Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital filed application last week to build a 220,000-square-foot pavilion to house women's services, including inpatient beds, operating rooms and support space. In addition to the new construction, the hospital's overall plans include renovation of 88,000 square feet in the existing facility. The expansion at Methodist's Germantown location does not call for any new net beds to the system, a spokesperson said. Instead, it would transfer 100 beds from elsewhere within the system. The entire campus will be about 580,000 square feet once the expansion and renovation are complete. This latest step of the construction process comes on the heels of last summer's $9 million building permit to build a 260,000-square-foot parking deck at the Germantown location.
