The addition of this new Neonatal Critical Care Unit (NCCU) coincided with the hospital’s desire to improve the main entrance to the facility. The old entrance canopy and main lobby were demolished and replaced by the second-floor NCCU addition which spans above the new drop off area and a new main lobby. A main goal of this addition was to increase the visibility of the hospital from the highway, and the new stair tower became the perfect spot for new signage with a backdrop of Texas stone veneer and a curved metal roof. The new entrance is emphasized with exterior lighting at night. The new main lobby continues the updated image into the facility, featuring artwork from local artists along with new finishes and furniture
