New St. Anthony Health Complex receives award of merit
CROWN POINT Franciscan Point Saint Anthony Health Complex has been commended for excellence in workmanship and design by Midwest Construction, a regional trade publication, in an annual contest that recognizes the best in building design in a four-state area.
An Award of Merit in the Health Care (Large Projects) category went to the 86,000-square-foot outpatient health complex, which opened in August on 81 acres near Interstate 65 and U.S. 231. The $38 million project was designed by Design Organization, which has offices in Chicago and in Valparaiso.
“I am elated that this award has been granted,’’ said David Ruskowski, St. Anthony Medical Center president. “We had an exceptional design team that produced a visually appealing, highly functional facility that houses a variety of outpatient services, some of which are very unique to the Northwest Indiana, Chicagoland area.’’
Franciscan Point offers state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging, urgent care, a Sports Medicine Institute, physical, occupational and speech therapy and other specialty services.
A panel of experts judged 128 projects in Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois and Missouri on criteria that included quality, project management, teamwork and service. The 36 winners are featured in the McGraw-Hill publication’s December issue and are scheduled to be honored at an awards luncheon in Chicago.
Project-of-the-year winners will be entered in the National Best of 2008 competition and judged against those from other regions.
