Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, June 5, 2008
Butler Health System has broken ground for an acute care tower at Butler (PA) Memorial Hospital. The seven-story, $128 million tower is a centerpiece in the health system's $167 million upgrade. The tower will include eight operating rooms, 24 intensive-care beds and 52 private medical-surgical beds, and its glass vestibule will serve as the new main entrance to the hospital. The new structure is scheduled to open in December 2009.
