BayCare has released the first renderings of its future Pagidipati Children’s Hospital at St. Joseph’s, a freestanding, state-of-the-art pediatric hospital scheduled to open on the St. Joseph’s Hospital campus in Tampa in 2030.
Pagidipati Children’s Hospital at St. Joseph’s will succeed the current St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital—the largest provider of pediatric health care in the Tampa Bay region, providing inpatient and outpatient care to thousands of children each year along with BayCare Kids. The new building is designed to grow those services in a vibrant, welcoming environment built specifically for pediatric patients and their families.
BayCare worked with architects at Page, now Stantec, to ensure that every element of the hospital reflects the children and families it will serve. The building itself will have a bold, multi-color exterior illuminated by a dynamic lighting system that changes with the seasons and holidays. The vibrant, color-changing features are meant to be a subtle reminder that this is a place of hope and recovery.
