Through the first eight months of the year, the square footage of hospital construction in Florida was up 64% to 1.9 million square feet and the dollar value was up 125% to $1.15 billion.
AJP Ventures previously completed the MedSquare medical office complex in Kendall and a senior living/medical office project in Westchester.
The deal for the 131-bed portfolio breaks down to $97,000 per bed.
The $56 million project will expand the sports facility into a 107,000-square-feet healthcare training center, where students will learn how to do surgery, assist in delivering babies, and respond to medical emergencies using simulations, including with robots, holograms, and virtual and augmented reality.
Construction of the neighborhood hospital is expected to be completed in the spring of 2024.
