A new building is planned for Deaconess Clinic Downtown, in a lot near the Stone Family Center for Health Sciences. The three-story medical office building will be located between Locust and Walnut Streets, near the former Townsquare Media facility. Construction will begin later this year, and is set for completion in the spring of 2020.
“This new building in downtown Evansville is a continuation of Deaconess’ commitment to providing innovative, high-quality services to the city’s center,” said Shawn McCoy, CEO of Deaconess Health System. “We’re glad to be part of the exciting growth and momentum of the downtown area.”
Many services and practices offered in the current Deaconess Clinic Downtown facility will relocate to the new three-story building. “We are eager to offer our patients a new, modern facility with the addition of convenient, covered parking,” said Allen White, MD, Chief Administrative Officer, Deaconess Clinic.
