BUILDING BOVEN Holland Hospital - Boven Birth Center Renovation - Construction Update Newsletter

NEW CURTAIN WALL

MAY UPDATE

Julie Cole Assistant Project Manager

It’s been another busy month and the crews are working hard on Phase 1 of the Boven Renovation. Each room is framed up and it is excited to see the new layout come to fruition. The new layout is much different than what was previously at 1 North. The postpartum rooms have finish drywall and most are painted. The shaft of Elevator 5 was infilled and this space is where the new supply room will be. The new and existing steel has been fireproofed. We have knocked down a wall between Phase 1 and existing Boven where we will begin to tie into the existing unit. With all of the trades working in this phase and all of their necessary materials, the space has become a little congested. We really appreciate the team continuously picking up after themselves and consolidating their materials to keep the site safe and clean. Thank you to everyone for staying on top of this!

FUN FACT Native-American tribes were the original inhabitants of this area. When the Dutch Calvinist separatists arrived in 1847, they used the Indian Removal Act of 1839 to drive these tribes out. The Ottawa people on the other hand, welcomed the Dutch. A congregation of the Reformed Church in America was established in 1847. Over the years, many more churches were built in this area, which led to the christening of Holland as the “City of Churches.” The city of Holland was officially incorporated in the year 1867. The current population of Holland is 33,581. It is exciting to know that the Boven Birthing Unit is crucial with the population growth in this area.
