In 2015, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta (Children’s), a nationally top-ranked pediatric healthcare system, engaged DaVinci Winstead*, a joint venture between DaVinci Development and The Winstead Group, to refine its North Druid Hills Campus Master Plan. Located in Brookhaven, Georgia, and one of the largest healthcare projects in Georgia’s history, the Children’s Campus is a 78-acre site that includes a pediatric hospital, attached clinic space, a central utility plant, two parking decks for staff and patients, more than 20 acres of green space, and miles of walking trails and paths for patients and families. DaVinci Winstead’s efforts included critical examination and refinement of project scope to ensure that each of the major components were validated, establishing control budgets as appropriate for each component, and continually verifying and testing underlying assumptions. While maintaining tight fiscal and schedule controls and limiting impact on continuous Children’s operations, the DaVinci Winstead team delivered the first phase, the Center for Advanced Pediatrics, and second phase, the Administrative Support Center.

Arthur M. Blank Hospital is a 2 million-square-foot facility, including two 19-story inpatient towers and the South Tower at Arthur M. Blank Hospital which houses the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center, Transplant and Heart Center Clinics, Infusion Center, outpatient phlebotomy and family education classrooms. Arthur M. Blank Hospital provides 446 licensed beds, of which 70% are dedicated to critical care and specialty services. It also welcomes 600 fellows and residents, with access to innovative technological enhancements for research and training. The entire campus incorporates 20 acres of green space and walking trails for patients, families, and employees.
