Texas Health Fort Worth will add four floors to Justin Tower in an expansion expected to be completed in 2029. A state project registration classifies the work as a $250 million renovation or alteration project.
Texas Health says Justin Tower will remain operational during the vertical expansion.
What the four new floors will contain
Floors 11 and 12 are planned for labor and delivery, a nursery, dedicated operating rooms, and antepartum, postpartum and gynecology rooms.
Floors nine and 10 will initially remain unfinished shell space that can accommodate future needs.
A separate 71-room project opens sooner
The four-floor addition and the 71-room build-out are separate projects with different timelines. Work on two existing unfinished floors will create a 36-bed surgical and telemetry unit and a 35-bed trauma and burn unit, both scheduled to open in August 2026.
People interested in working in the new units can use Texas Health’s expansion careers page for associated employment information.
Elsewhere in Tarrant County, North Hills Hospital has a separate $500,000 operating-room renovation planned in Richland Hills.
