Mayo Clinic Plans Approved to Transform Healthcare
The new buildings total approximately 2.4 million square feet of space infused with technology to improve care delivery. Structural and architectural components will allow for future expansion.
Mayo Clinic’s Board of Trustees has approved Bold. Forward. Unbound. in Rochester, a multiyear strategic initiative that advances Mayo Clinic’s Bold. Forward. strategy to Cure, Connect and Transform healthcare for the benefit of patients everywhere. It reimagines Mayo Clinic’s downtown Rochester campus and introduces new facilities with a combination of innovative care concepts and digital technologies that will give Mayo Clinic the ability to scale transformation in ways never before imagined. Bold. Forward. Unbound. in Rochester will introduce five new buildings, related infrastructure and utilities — all with future-oriented design elements. The new buildings total approximately 2.4 million square feet of space infused with technology to improve care delivery. Structural and architectural components will allow for future expansion. Existing spaces will also be redesigned to support growing patient needs prior to the completion of new facilities.
Preparatory work is already underway with the City of Rochester, neighboring properties and the community, along with enabling work such as surveying and traffic studies across the Rochester campus. More significant construction will begin in early 2024. Plans are in place to ensure the Rochester community, Mayo Clinic staff and patients receive information well before changes occur, and every effort will be made to minimize disruption to day-to-day work. A multiyear construction timeline has the goal of opening some facilities as early as 2028, with the project expected to be completed by 2030.
