Howard University Hospital could be moving.                                  

Howard University has floated a plan to relocate its hospitalto another part of its Northwest D.C. campus and redevelop the facility’s current site. The school unveiled the concept for that potential 3 million-square-foot development project at a Community Advisory Committee meeting Oct. 28, per a tweet from Eric Fidler, chief information officer of the D.C. Department of For-Hire Vehicles.                          

The future hospital expansion, as it’s labeled on images from the presentation, is part of “the beginning stages” of an update to Howard’s campus master plan, the university confirmed to the Washington Business Journal. The CAC meetings are held quarterly, “to update both internal and external stakeholders about planning activities,” Howard said in a statement to the WBJ.
