The new 41.5-acre Flagler Health+ campus in St. Johns County’s Durbin Park development has broken ground.
The health and wellness campus will feature a hospital and outpatient surgery center and a signature Flagler Health+ Village concept. The health village will incorporate family medicine, specialty care, urgent care, imaging, laboratory services, healthy lifestyle programming, and community engagement space with an emphasis on integrating nature and technology to enhance experiences. The campus will also feature a wellness facility, walking trails, and retail offerings.
Flagler Health+ Durbin Park is located between Interstate 95 and State Road 9B. It is part of GATE Lands’ larger Durbin Park Development. “We are creating a premier health and wellness destination. The campus has been designed to create a sense of community, deliver uniquely personalized experiences, and achieve the best possible health outcomes for all people,” said Flagler Health+ President and CEO Jason Barrett, in a release.
Outpatient clinical services are slated to open in early 2023. The entire three-phase project is expected to complete in 2027.

Two projects seek to reinvigorate Los Angeles County medical center
HMC Architects designed two new buildings for the Los Angeles County Martin Luther King, Jr., Medical Center as part of a $360 million plan to reinvigorate the campus. The buildings include a 120-bed hospital, which involves renovation of an existing tower and several support buildings, and the construction of a new multi-service ambulatory care center. The new facilities will have large expanses of glass at all waiting and public areas for unobstructed views of downtown Los Angeles. A curved glass entrance canopy will unite the two buildings. When both projects are completed—the hospital in 2012 and the ambulatory care center in 2013—the campus will have added more than 460,000 sf of space. The hospital will seek LEED certification, while the ambulatory care center is targeting LEED Silver.
