ALEXANDRIA, VA — Clark Construction Group officially marked a milestone at the new Inova Alexandria Hospital with the topping out of the hospital building. This event celebrates the structural completion of the fourth and final building for the new 855,000-square-foot medical campus in Alexandria, Virginia. The ceremony recognized over 850 craftworkers and skilled tradespeople who have brought Inova’s vision for this facility to life. The project remains on schedule for a 2028 completion. The new Inova Alexandria Hospital campus serves as the anchor for Alexandria’s most significant urban redevelopment in decades. The project comprises four primary structures designed by the architects Ballinger and Ennead, including:
- Hospital Building: 663,000 square feet
- Cancer Center: 107,700 square feet
- Specialty Care Center: 84,800 square feet
"This topping out is more than just a construction milestone; it’s a testament to the partnership among Inova, Clark, our trade partners, and the Alexandria community to deliver a world-class health care facility to the region," said Ellen Quigley, Vice President at Clark Construction. "Topping out the fourth and final building signifies that we are one step closer to delivering a facility that will provide life-saving care for generations to come." The Inova Alexandria Campus is designed to provide patients with the latest in medical technology. The new hospital will include 192 licensed inpatient beds in fully private rooms, advanced cardiac and neurosciences care, comprehensive women’s health services, specialized cancer care, and outpatient services including primary and specialty care. With the concrete complete, the project enters its next phase. The team has shifted its focus to the building’s envelope, including the installation of the glass curtain wall and precast panels. Simultaneously, interior buildouts have already commenced on the lower floors, focusing on complex mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems required to power the hospital’s medical equipment.
