ewark Beth Israel Medical Center recently hosted a groundbreaking for its $100M renovation project, , the largest expansion of the hospital since 1967. The project includes expanded adult and pediatric emergency departments, new hybrid operating rooms, a dedicated center for all cardiac services, and a newly renovated maternity unit. A key component of the project is the hospital’s new main lobby, an estimated 17,000-square-foot, glass-enclosed space, that moves the hospital’s front entrance back to its original location on Lyons Avenue.
