HOUSTON — W.S. Bellow's Construction has finished vertical construction of Texas Children's Hospital's new maternity center. The $575 million Houston project spans 796,000 square feet and a 532,000-square-foot parking deck. The property connects to the Texas Medical Center by way of a pedestrian bridge. Delivery is slated for winter 2011. The building was designed by FKP Architects and Inventure Design. A second tower also is planned, and that will bring the maternity center's footprint to 1.9 million square feet.
