This project consists of a new hospital tower within the Texas Medical Center, on the corner of John Freeman Blvd and Bertner Ave, next to Walter Tower.
The new hospital tower is a 29-story tower (511' to top of mechanical roof) with total square footage approximately at 1.2 million sf. The new hospital tower will adjoin to the existing Walter Tower on Levels 4 and below. Centennial Tower will also be connected to Walter Tower via a series of skybridges on Levels 9 - 21. Skybridge connectors will also connect Garage 7 and existing Walter Tower/Fondren Brown atrium to the Outpatient Care Center.
The site is located next to Walter Tower and will be bounded by Bertner Avenue and John Freeman Blvd. An existing building will be demolished on this site also owned by Houston Methodist.

The existing structure, the former Mary Gibbs Jones Hall of Texas Woman's University was converted into office space for Houston Methodist in the past decade. It is now being demolished to make way for this tower.
