Local Hospital Plans Expansion

Children's Hospital in Columbus is expanding to make room for more patients. A new building project will begin in January on the current site of Columbus Africentric School's football field and parking lot. The hospital will also begin building a new office building at Livingston and Parsons Avenues later this year, with the first floor potentially being left open for restaurants or shops.
