Henry Ford Health is building a 20-story hospital tower on West Grand Boulevard, directly across the street from the hospital it opened in 1915.

The steel topped out in May and the tower will open in 2029. It costs $2.2 billion.

Inside: 432 private rooms, 28 operating suites, five floors of intensive care and an emergency department twice the size of the current one. The top three floors are a 72-bed rehab unit run with Chicago's Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, paid for largely by a $130 million gift from the Gilbert Family Foundation.

It anchors a $3 billion New Center plan with the Pistons and Michigan State. The MSU research center across the Lodge opens first, in 2027.
