The $754 million, 1.1 million-square-foot facility took five years to complete — and it's expected to open Dec. 4. With about 6,000 employees, 500 new workers and 348 inpatient rooms, the Ann Arbor facility is among most technologically sophisticated medical facilities in the country.
AnnArbor.com business news director Nathan Bomey, business reporter Lizzy Alfs, U-M reporter Kellie Woodhouse, photographer Melanie Maxwell and photographer Angela J. Cesere toured the facility today.

1.1 million square feet! To give you an idea of the size of this structure, the Pentagon is 3.7 million square feet and the Packard Properties complex in Detroit is 3.1 million square feet.

Here is to hoping you never have to see the hospital in person.

This is where my heart is at. To help the ill children, and give them hope. This hospital has been a long time needed, and I believe when it comes to UofM medical, they do care, and I have been there with my kids many, many times. I am grateful to them and I ask that God bless the people who help God with his handy work, and all the children who need the care our new hospital provides. Thank you UofM.
