Description: Meeting of the LMA Forum to hear from Beth Isreal Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) regarding the New Inpatient Building ("Proposed Project"). The Proposed Project will be located on BIDMC’s West Campus in the Longwood Medical and Academic Area on a site bounded by Brookline Avenue, Francis Street, a discontinued portion of Pilgrim Road owned by BIDMC, and the Rosenberg Building. The site currently includes the Emergency Department patient drop-off, ambulance entrance, main West Campus loading facility (Main Loading Facility) and West Campus oxygen tanks. The Proposed Project will include approximately 345,000 square feet of hospital uses, including 158 inpatient beds (up to 128 medical/surgical and 30 intensive/critical care beds) within the proposed new building, and a rooftop helipad (which will be relocated from an immediately adjacent building). BIDMC anticipates closing some existing West Campus beds at the opening of the New Inpatient Building, resulting in 69 net new beds added to BIDMC’s West Campus bed count. BIDMC also anticipates reopening 20 additional West Campus beds about 24 months after the Proposed Project opens, for a total of 89 net new beds to be added to BIDMC’s West Campus in connection with the Proposed Project during the term of the amended BIDMC IMP. The Proposed Project will be approximately 200 feet tall and will not include new parking. The Main Loading Facility will operate at the same location it currently does following completion of the Proposed Project.
