HOPE Tower at Jersey Shore University Medical Center Receives 2018 Distinguished Engineering Award

The HOPE Tower at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, New Jersey has been awarded the Alliance for Action’s 2018 Distinguished Engineering Award.

Dewberry provided surveying; site/civil, geotechnical and traffic engineering, as well as landscape architecture and environmental services for JSUMC’s new $265-million development. The 300,000-square-foot facility includes the HOPE Tower and a nine-level parking garage with more than 1,500 parking spaces. The firm also supported JSUMC with demolition of a senior housing complex that occupied the development site and offsite water, sewer and roadway improvements to support the development.

The tower, which opened in June 2018, provides a healing outpatient experience for the community, a cancer center, advanced imaging technologies, research services and medical education programs, faculty physician offices, an amphitheater and a high-tech simulation laboratory.

LF Driscoll served as general contractor on the project and WHR Architects as the architect.
