View from the top<br />

The new critical care tower will be connected to the new parking deck and main hospital building by skywalks accessed on the third floor.<br />

Last summer, <strong>Akron</strong> Children’s announced<br />

a $200 million expansion of its <strong>Akron</strong> campus,<br />

which includes a new critical care tower. The<br />

design phase of the tower is complete, and<br />

the timeline for construction has been set.<br />

The renderings above and at right will give<br />

you a sneak peek inside the new building,<br />

which is set to open in 2015. For more<br />
