NEW HOSPITAL AND MEDICAL CAMPUS OPENS IN ISSAQUAH HIGHLANDS
Opened in 2011, the Swedish/Issaquah medical campus features a comprehensive hospital and five-story medical office building on a picturesque site in Issaquah Highlands. It is the first full-scale medical complex to be built in King County in more than 25 years.
The 555,000-square-foot campus includes the cancer center, ambulatory care center and 175 hospital beds, as well as the ICU, inpatient surgery, pediatric inpatient unit, medical/surgical inpatient unit, and labor and delivery. The campus also features retail shops and a restaurant, Café 1910.
Built for an estimated $365 million, the three-year construction project employed more than 500 construction and design employees to build the state-of-the-art facility. Designed as the most energy efficient medical campus in the region, Swedish/Issaquah is estimated to employ more than 1,200 hospital and medical staff in Issaquah Highlands. The new campus is located at 751 N.E. Blakely Drive in Issaquah Highlands, just off I-90 at Exit 18.
