KINGSTON, N.Y. — The New York State Department has approved a proposal from HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley to transform and expand its hospital in Kingston, a project that is valued at roughly $92.9 million. Project plans call for the construction of a new, 79,000-square-foot building that will house 175 beds and an emergency care center and a full renovation of the existing 48,000-square-foot space. An exact construction start date has yet to be determined, but the department’s approval represents the final hurdle to be cleared in green-lighting the project, according to the development team.
