West Hospital Campus Expansion, New Tower and Podium

BSA is spearheading the expansive Houston Methodist West Campus renovation and expansion project, a multifaceted endeavor encompassing several components and phases. The cornerstone of this initiative is constructing a new six-story patient bed tower, the East Tower. Additionally, the existing West Podium will undergo a three-story expansion, while the original hospital will receive a single-story addition to accommodate an enlarged food services area. Furthermore, the project entails substantial improvements to the central utility plant. These major expansions have been masterplanned and phased to allow for the 3-story West Podium and food service addition to be done first (Phase 1) and the 6-story East Tower to follow (Phase 2).

With a projected total expansion of approximately 360,000 BGSF, this undertaking is truly ambitious in scale. The guiding principles underpinning this project are threefold: first, to elevate the healthcare experience by curating a warm, welcoming, and easily navigable facility with a hospitality-inspired ambiance; second, to create spaces that are built to withstand the test of time, supporting operational flexibility, optimization, and future needs; and third, to employ evidence-based design principles that promote safety and quality.
