Children’s Healthcare Ready To Open First Big Building In Mega-Project

Opening soon: A $127 million building that will have 260,000 square feet, more than 250 patient care rooms, 1,100 parking spaces — and an expected 100,000 patient visits in its first year.

The Center for Advanced Pediatrics, a Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta outpatient, non-emergency facility, will open July 24. It will focus on children and teens with chronic disease and complex medical conditions.

The center is the first big structure – eight floors, towering over I-85 — on Children’s medical campus in Brookhaven, which will eventually house a new hospital. (The center will not have an emergency room or walk-in care.)
