There will be ongoing construction activity for Building Care at the hospital campus until the building opens in spring 2022. Seattle Children’s will publish a weekly post on this Construction Blog that outlines the work expected to occur the following week. We will also post to this blog whenever a construction activity will be especially impactful to neighbors.

From March 8 to March 14, construction crews are scheduled to perform the following activities:

  • Build out interior spaces
  • Framing
  • Paint
  • Install roofing
  • Install metal sheeting and panels
  • Install mechanical and electrical wiring and plumbing equipment
  • Install drywall
  • Install elevator equipment
  • Install ceilings
  • Install soil
  • Install flooring
  • De-energize temporary electrical service and remove temporary power poles (Seattle City Light)
  • Excavation and grading
  • Install irrigation system and drains
  • Pour footings
  • Building connection work:
    • Install flooring and metal column covers on level 3 of River C
    • Fireproofing, demolish walls and ceilings, and install sheeting and seismic joints on level 1 of Forest A
    • Trim utility wiring on level 9 of Forest A

Construction noise will be generated throughout the week. Expect heavy truck traffic. The soil installation may generate moderate odors. Construction activity is weather-dependent and subject to change based on conditions.

All work will take place within standard construction hours: 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Friday, and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday.
