Moffitt plans to build a new outpatient facility at the southeast intersection of East College Avenue and 27th Street South in Ruskin.
The Terra affiliate then flipped 6.5 acres of that site to Davie Medical Center LLC, an affiliate of HCA, for $6.1 million.
The size, cost, and construction schedule for the hospital are still being finalized. Initially, SMH-North Port will open with approximately 100 beds, but will be constructed to have the capacity to more than double in size to meet local healthcare needs.
Prior plans had the project’s first phase include the emergency department along with a four-story, 90,450-square-foot medical office building, with the second phase including a five-story, 250,100-square-foot hospital.
