Construction has already began on the expansion project at the Ridgeview Medical Center in Waconia. The new construction will house the Regional Heart Center, the Center for Women & Children and a Communications Center.

During this time, the emergency entrance has been moved any anyone that visits the hospital should be on the lookout for big red detour signs. The detour will last until late fall.

I’m eager to see what construction brings, the official Ridgeview Medical website doesn’t give much of any details on the project but it sounds like they are expanding quite a bit. Only time will tell.

As the Hospital continues to grow and expand, check out what it use to look like in 1954. Amazing!
