Site work, new construction and remodeling of a medical facility in Waterloo, Ontario. Design plans call for the construction of a medical facility; and for the remodel of a medical facility.

Consolidation of Grand River Hospital and St. Mary's General Hospital. Scope to include: renovation and remodeling of Grand River main site for ambulatory and urgent care; expansion of rehabilitation services at Grand River - Freeport; and construction of a new joint-use building for acute care. The hospitals will continue to operate independently in shared space once the redevelopment and new build are complete. Preferred site is on University of Waterloo-owned lands: north of Columbia St, south of Bearinger Rd, and east of Westmount Road, near the David Johnson Research and Technology Park. TIMELINE: Project planning and community engagement are ongoing. In early 2026, the process to begin the design work for the new hospital kicked off (known as Stage 2.1). Also underway is the updating of the site plan with each building under 900,000 sq ft, a new requirement by the Provincial Government. Scope of work has yet to be confirmed. In early October 2026, the owner resubmitted the Ministry of Health required Stage 1.3 Functional Program with the new changes. Owner is developing a schedule to begin getting the site Construction Ready beginning in 2027, upon Ministry of Health approval. The hospital will be built in three phases, known as 1A, 1B, and 1C. Further update early spring 2027. *Provincial funding contribution for this project is 15 million in Capital Grants. *The Ministry of Health approved the merger of the Grand River Hospital and St. Mary's General Hospital into the Waterloo Regional Health Network (WRHN) in 2025.
