I know it is needed, and I know $$ are not abundant and I know that, one day, it will be built taller but does it really have to look so boring?

I mean, they could always add exposed pipes and vents like they did with their other building behind it... >.<
 
Social Media post from St. Mike's (Unity Health) on the subject of this project, today.

I must confess...........they state that this will open in Spring '26, which is at least another 9 months away.

Hospitals are complex, but that seems like an inordinately long fit-out.

Why? They desperately need more and better space in Emerg and they built it so that the bottom floors can remain open when they get $ to build higher. It is not an elegant building but it IS necessary.

Especially since St. Mike's is one of the only two Level 1 Trauma Centres in the GTA.

Interesting factoid for you...........

Chicago (proper) which is a smaller city than Toronto by several hundred thousand at this point, has 4 level one trauma centres.

Its greater area, has 7 level 1 trauma centres. (comparable in population to GTHA); Philadelphia, also smaller than Toronto, has 6.

All of Ontario has far less than that.

Now, granted, they have a lot more gunshot wounds to treat in Chicago....

Still, make me wonder, are we due to add additional level 1 trauma centres in Ontario?

Maybe one in K-W when they rebuild there, and another in the GTA?
