It’s been three years since JPS Health Network broke ground on the first site in its four-phase revitalization project. Now we have an update.
Back in 2018, Tarrant County voters approved an $800 million bond program for the project, and JPS originally estimated an additional $600 million in operational costs. As of August, the hospital’s board passed the 2026 operating budget reflecting updated project costs of $1.7 billion — totaling a $2.5 billion investment.
Here are the biggest advancements since JPS broke ground:
Medical Home Southwest Tarrant — Now open
In February, JPS opened Medical Home Southwest Tarrant, a primary and speciality care medical clinic at the intersection of Mesa Springs Drive and Granbury Road. The $37 million flagship community health facility provides primary care, behavioral health, radiology, lab services, a pharmacy (including drive-through), and community education spaces.
This portion is not located on JPS’ Main Campus.
Las Vegas Trail Health Center — Now open
The Las Vegas Trail Health Center opened this past summer through a partnership with Cook Children’s Health Care, the City of Fort Worth, and local nonprofits. This shared facility offers pediatric and adult care and strengthens access to services in a historically underserved neighborhood.
This portion is also not located on JPS’ Main Campus.
Psychiatric Emergency Center — Now open
In September, JPS opened its dedicated 68,000-sqft Psychiatric Emergency Center on its main hospital campus, replacing its former 10th-floor psychiatric unit. All psychiatric emergency services moved from the main campus to this free-standing building + the new facility has space for up to 90 patients.
Medical Outpatient Building (MOB) + Magnolia Parking Garage — Coming Soon
The parking lot of the current JPS Professional Office complex will be transformed into a $112 million, 400,000-sqft medical office building and a $63 million seven-story parking garage. It is slated to open in spring 2026, while the MOB is slated for early 2029.
During the construction of these facilities, temporary parking will be created to match the hospital’s needs. The current JPS Green Space will be used for temporary parking before it is developed.
Central Utility Plant — Coming 2029
A $128 million co-generation plant will provide power, heating, and cooling for the entire JPS complex. Patients won’t step inside this structure.
Pavilion North Expansion + New Hospital — Coming 2030
Considered to be the “centerpiece” of the transformation, a new hospital and the expansion of the existing pavilion on South Main Street are set to start construction as early as this spring. New towers will be constructed over the green space on the already-existing Patient Care Pavilion to connect current hospital facilities.
