Governor Andrew M.

This funding will also leverage over $270 million in additional investments to support business growth and lay the groundwork for future economic growth and job creation.

“By funding these projects, we are attracting new businesses and supporting local economic development priorities in communities across the State,” Governor Cuomo said. “Focusing on key industries like manufacturing, healthcare and tourism, these projects are creating jobs and leveraging millions of dollars in private sector investments. Today’s announcement is a reminder that New York’s economy is on the move, and this administration is actively working with local, federal, and private sector partners to keep that momentum going.”

Empire State Development President, CEO & Commissioner Kenneth Adams said, “Under the leadership of Governor Cuomo, we are making targeted investments that are supporting major economic development projects across New York State. From supporting municipal facility construction and expansion to advancing the manufacturing and health research industries, these projects are creating jobs and building a solid foundation for future growth.”

St. Joseph’s Hospital Health Center (Central New York Region – Onondaga County) –$2,500,000

St. Joseph’s Hospital Health Center, a not‐for‐profit teaching hospital and comprehensive medical care institution located in Syracuse, will use a grant of up to $2.5 million to support the construction of a new $113 million patient tower and greenway corridor to North Side businesses in Syracuse as part of a major $265 million facility expansion, which is one of the largest green health care construction projects in the Northeast. St. Joseph’s provides acute inpatient, outpatient, primary care, emergency, psychiatric, clinic, home health and other services for residents of Central New York.

St. Joseph’s is finalizing the construction and equipping of a 104,000‐square‐foot patient tower including 110 private rooms, intensive care units, a 73,000‐square‐foot surgical suite with 14 operating rooms, a 12,100‐square‐foot central sterile area, and a greenway corridor. The tower will also contain space for support services, staff education and family waiting areas. As a result of the project, St. Joseph’s will retain 2,923 existing jobs at the project location and create 146 new jobs.

The project is closely aligned with the Central New York REDC’s mission and identified strategic goals in the area of health care and biomedical sciences, and will create a green, state‐of‐the‐art facility that fosters innovation, improve the health of the urban neighborhood surrounding the hospital through the creation of new infrastructure, serve as a training ground for the education of health care professionals, and contribute toward considerable energy and water savings each year.
