Windsor Regional Hospital is officially taking ownership of the 60-acre property at the corner of County Road 42 and the 9th Concession, the future site of the new Regional Acute Care Hospital.

The purchase of sale agreement was originally signed in 2015 and closed this month after all of the agreed upon conditions, including proper zoning of the site and ministry approval of the project, were met.

“This development puts the future Windsor-Essex Hospitals System on solid ground,” says David Musyj, President and CEO of Windsor Regional Hospital. “Today, thanks to the commitment of Premier Doug Ford, Health Minister Christine Elliott, every elected official in this region who made moving this project forward a main priority and the Windsor Regional Hospital Foundation, we are taking a giant step toward a world-class hospital system for our region.”

Under the agreement, the current owners will transfer 60 acres of land to Windsor Regional Hospital, at a price of $100,000/acre or $6 million as awarded through the detailed procurement process.
