Bristol Hospital and Rendina Hold Beam Signing Event for Ambulatory Care Center

Bristol, Connecticut

The downtown construction site of Bristol Hospital’s new 62,000-square-foot Ambulatory Care Center (ACC) attracted staff from Bristol Hospital, Mayor Ellen Zoppo-Sassu, and executives from Rendina Healthcare Real Estate as they commemorated construction progress with a beam signing ceremony.

Flanked by towering steel girders forming the frame of what will soon be a state-of-the-art healthcare facility, Mary Lynn Gagnon, Executive Director of Bristol Hospital Development Foundation, led the event and introduced representatives speaking on behalf of the project.



The ACC is being built at the intersection of Main Street and Riverside Avenue in downtown. Bristol Hospital’s Multi-Specialty Group will occupy the building, offering a variety of crucial services, including cardiology, endocrinology and diabetes, neurology, orthopedics, rheumatology and urology.

In addition to providing affordable and accessible healthcare to the community, the construction progress of the ACC is acting as a catalyst for the growth and revitalization of downtown.

Rendina will own and manage the facility, which is expected to open in April of 2019.
