Emory Johns Creek Hospital Opens Sixth Floor, New Parking Deck

JOHNS CREEK, GA — Emory Johns Creek Hospital celebrated on Wednesday the completion of a facility expansion adding two new floors and 40 additional beds to the existing hospital. One floor will remain shell space for the time being. Also opening is a new parking deck that will provide 640 parking spaces and offer free parking to patients and visitors.

The project adds approximately 70,000 square feet to the existing patient tower and features large windows for natural daylight, LED lighting and controls and low-emitting interior finishes. The sixth floor is set to open next week and will contain 40 medical, surgical and oncology patient rooms and three nurses’ stations. The fifth floor, which will contain office and additional shell space, will open at a later date.

"Our main commitment is to provide efficient, compassionate world-class care to help patients heal, close to home," Emory Johns Creek Hospital CEO Marilyn Margolis said. "This expansion also gives Emory Johns Creek Hospital additional opportunities to innovate, educate and serve as a vital part of our community."

The facility expansion was led by DPR Construction.

"Change the world. It's one of our core beliefs at DPR, and one way to do that is through the customers we serve," said Chris Bontrager, DPR’s Atlanta business unit leader. "Emory is such a vital member of the Johns Creek community, it’s been an honor supporting the local team to deliver the expansion of Emory Johns Creek Hospital to allow them to provide even more extraordinary care and excellent service to the people of Johns Creek."

The new parking deck, located behind the hospital, was designed by Collins Cooper Carusi Architects and built by McCarthy Building Companies.
