Franciscan Health broke ground Tuesday for a new medical office building with a blessing by The Most Rev. Robert McClory, bishop of the Diocese of Gary.
The two-story, 82,881-square-footbuilding is being built by Tonn and Blank Construction at 3400 Mariposa Drive at the southeast corner of State Roads 2 and 49. It will house an ExpressCare, primary care and specialty physician offices, diagnostic imaging, CT, MRI, ultrasound and laboratory services.
“Franciscan Health has been serving Valparaiso and the surrounding communities for many years with ExpressCare, Working Well, diagnostic imaging, primary care and physician specialists,” Franciscan Health Michigan City President and CEO Dean Mazzoni said. “We are excited to be significantly expanding our presence in Valparaiso with this project. We will soon be offering increased access to high quality Franciscan services, renowned for delivering healthcare with joy, compassion and love, in one convenient location.”
The new medical office building construction is scheduled to be complete by the end of 2026.
