Corewell’s $1.34B Hospital Leap | Grand Rapids News

Corewell Health is pouring $1.34 billion into a groundbreaking new hospital campus in Grand Rapids — featuring an 11-story, 780,000-square-foot tower on the Butterworth site — to replace outdated facilities and meet soaring healthcare demand. This isn’t just local: it’s part of a $1.7 billion statewide push, including a major expansion in Troy. With the current Butterworth hospital operating at over 90% capacity and being West Michigan’s only Level One trauma center, modernization is urgent. The mayor calls healthcare a cornerstone of city growth, and this project promises private rooms, cutting-edge ORs, and even a hyperbaric chamber. Construction begins summer 2027, aiming for completion by 2030 — a once-in-a-generation upgrade designed to minimize footprint while maximizing impact.
