The next phase of the campus will feature a second patient tower that will house 420 beds, and a medical office building. The patient tower is expected to begin construction in January, and the medical office building will begin in the fall. The projects are expected to be completed by 2019, according to a statement.

Once this is complete in 2019, it will leave the Baylor St.Luke's current location vacant. The buildings fate is unknown at the moment.

CHI St. Luke's Health and the Baylor College of Medicine will move into their new McNair campus in 2019, which will leave the existing iconic double-spired tower in the Texas Medical Center vacant.

"The needles" as the current Baylor St. Luke's McNair Center is sometimes referred to, was built in 1954 and has fallen behind compared to other major facilities in the TMC. So when CHI St. Luke's does move, it will be for good.

"The intent behind those facilities has always been to sell them," Michael Covert, CEO of CHI St. Luke's Health, told the Houston Business Journal.

The buyer hasn't been determined yet. However, Covert did say that he's had early conversations with leadership at Texas Children's Hospital and other institutions who would be interested in the real estate. It could be upgraded and used for research or clinical care, or torn down and rebuilt into a brand new facility, Covert said.

The Baylor College of Medicine and CHI St. Luke's Health broke ground on Tower 2 in their McNair Campus on April 5.

The new patient tower will house 420 beds and a medical office building. It will be part of the health care organizations' 27.5-acre, $1.1 billion McNair Campus, which will also be the future site of the Texas Heart Institute.

The proposed diagnostic and treatment facility at Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center is an icon for state-of-the-art medical research and practice. The 21-story expansion emphasizes visual recognition from Old Spanish Trail and the adjacent research campus. This 448-bed patient tower is oriented to mark the gateway into the Texas Medical Center research campus.

The angled orientation of the tower establishes its relationship between Old Spanish Trail and provided favorable views for both the northwest and southwest facing lounge spaces located at the end of each floor. Simultaneously the orientation improves self-shading. The 5-story diagnostics and treatment facility is organized to convey clear points of access for visitors while providing ample overhangs to shade naturally lit multi-volume entrances and public drop-off areas. A signature bridge bypasses the ambulance drop-off area and Emergency Department walk-up entrance and connects the parking structure to the Cardiovascular Center of Excellence and lower level lobbies. Together the bridge and Cardiovascular Center function as recognizably prominent design features supporting the significance of this center. An outdoor terrace on the third level of the medical center separates the D&T block and existing tower while providing views of a landscape terrace from above. This terrace accommodates both patients, their loved ones and the staff that care for them with tranquil spaces set apart from the stress and tension often experienced treatment.

This building was placed on hold shortly after groundbreaking, now it's in the midst of a redesign.

As of late, I’ve also been attending meetings with architects on the TMC and the McNair campus. My day usually ends early to late evening — it’s not unusual for me to have a dinner meeting at least Monday through Thursday. Then, I get to go home to my family before doing it all over again the next day — very full, but typically very rewarding days.

That HBJ article about Baylor St.Luke's moving was way off. The O'Quinn Medical Tower (needles) was built in 1990, not 1954 and is a professional building, not a hospital. The actual hospital that was built in 1954 is around the corner.

Permits were issued at the end of May, should see the new design soon.

New rendering. Possibly a new design?

Or, it's the backside of the project. The curved facade is not pictured.

How does this hospital fit into the CHI St. Luke's system? Will it ever replace the main St. Luke's hospital on Fannin Street one day? I understand it's jointly owned by Baylor College of Medicine but BCM also staffs the main St. Luke's hospital.

Fencing going up. Should be starting soon.

Kind of irrelevant since the building is now under construction. Wanted to give you a source to the Unknown. These designs/renders came from Tim Cousino.

New McNair Campus Master Plan discovered by a HAIF member. Notice the new tower at the back of the property.

Doug Lawson’s November 2019 McNair Campus Legislative Open House tweet.

Additionally, in the referenced July 2020 YouTube video, Dr. Paul Klotman references both TMC3 and the McNair Campus expansion.

Specifically, he references BCM’s proposed “education building” (i.e., medical school relocation) and “population health / big data science building”.
