The project is a 157,000-square-foot ambulatory care facility that will house new exam rooms, an outpatient surgery suite and a women’s health clinic.

Medical center officials said the expansion will allow 400 additional outpatient visits to the medical center daily.

The project is the result of a partnership between the Veterans Affairs Department and Heritage Services, a local nonprofit group that has worked to get construction projects up and running in the area.

VA is contributing $56 million toward construction, and Heritage is responsible for raising the remaining $30 million.
