Businesses and community members are invited to be part of a special milestone by signing the final structural beam of the St. Louis Children’s at CoxHealth Specialty Care Center, currently under construction on the Cox South campus.

The 133,000-square-foot facility is expected to open in 2027 and will feature ambulatory surgery, imaging, laboratory services, infusion, pediatric specialty care clinics and more.

The beam will be installed during a topping out ceremony Friday, Oct. 2. Before then, it will be prominently displayed at the entrance of The Meyer Center during Good Morning, Springfield!, giving attendees the opportunity to add their signatures and show their support for the new facility.
