I couldn't find a thread for QEH developments.

IS this not the most shocking thing you have seen since 1950? WTF is this.

What is it? A building or a car park?

Monster carpark.

Gross

Green, white, grey, khaki, red...I assume whoever designed it is colour blind.
It's a good solution though for that spot, so long as there is public parking available.
Problem I see though, where is the entry and ambulance entry for the emergency department gone? The far end looks like it goes right up to the existing hospital building/wall.

For a carpark, it looks pretty stylish to me.

Last week demolition started on this $314 million project.
This will see the construction of a new Emergency Department, intensive care unit and operating theatres which will begin later in the year.
A completion date of 2024 is expected.

TQEH Stage 3 Redevelopment will deliver a new multi-deck car park, upgraded cardiac catheter labs and a new Clinical Services Building which will include:

46 bay Emergency Department
52 bed Rehabilitation Unit
14 bed Intensive Care Unit
12 operating theatres
4 procedure rooms
Cardiac catheterisation laboratory
Recovery spaces
Central Sterile Supply Department
Medical Imaging Department
Pathology laboratory
Staff support areas

Current shots of QEH upgrade project…apologies for the quality of photos due to being taken from inside South Ward…

I’ve not been back in Adl for a little while but does this include a revamp of the existing buildings because last I was there they were looked abandoned in parts

All existing buildings at the QEH are still functional…this development involves the construction of a much bigger new ED, new operating theatres, a new ICU plus many other things in the new building being built. The existing ED is very small and dated and in an awkward corner of the existing QEH complex.

There is talk about taking 3 floors of the tower block when it is done.

Drove past and saw the tower is now up for the second crane.
Crane should be up shortly
