The city of Dayton and Premier Health Partners reached an agreement on developing on the previous land used by the Good Samaritan Hospital.
Back in 2018, Premier Health had announced they were closing the Good Samaritan Hospital. The hospital closed and the company paid to demolish the property. What is left was the parking garage that was built in 2005.
It shook the community.
Community leaders slammed the decision as a racist and claimed that the residents of Northwest Dayton were stripped of a hospital. On Wednesday, the city and hospital group reached an agreement to redevelop on the property.
Phoenix Next, an initiative launched in 2018 to revitalize the former hospital site and surrounding neighborhoods. The 13-acre site will be a hub to an urgent care facility, physical therapy, lab services, medical imaging and physician office space.
Premier Health and Dayton have feuded these last few years. The city demanded the hospital to remain in tact. The company said that the need to have two Premier Health hospitals within five miles was not necessary.
The company finally conceded to giving a pledged $30 million to develop the area and make it shovel-ready. They made a commitment to make the former hospital a place for growth. They also added $15 million to ensure that residents have access to local doctors and food access.
"We are excited for what this future development will mean for the Northwest Dayton community," said Shelley Dickstein, Dayton's city manager. "As we continue our work with Premier Health to improve and revitalize the neighborhoods in this area, projects such as this will create the opportunity to attract future investment in the area."
The Good Samaritan Hospital was opened in 85 years and employed 1,600 people at the site before it closed. The hospital's closing had impacted the area. Over 15 businesses had closed permanently since.
