Hard Hat Tour: MetroHealth Transformation, Glick Center & Apex

  • Emmanuel Church 3525 West 25th Street Cleveland, OH, 44109 United States (map)

A hard hat tour of the MetroHealth Transformation program featuring the nearly completed Glick Center and the early construction of the Apex project.  MetroHealth’s Glick Center is a new 11-floor hospital and New Central Utility Plant, that will be LEED and Well Building certified, and the campus will sit in the first EcoDistrict anchored by a health care system in the U.S. The Apex project is MetroHealth’s outpatient and administrative building, delivering on MetroHealth’s promise to turn its main campus into a “hospital in a park” and to create a more welcoming neighborhood. The project consists of a new Outpatient Care facility (including a Cancer Center), Rammelkamp Center renovation and a 700-car parking garage.

Please note meeting location and the required PPE below. Additionally, a waiver that must be completed will be sent before the event.
