History

Children's announced its plans to include a pediatric hospital at its new campus at North Druid Hills Road, Feb. 9, 2017.

Arthur M. Blank Hospital and the attached South Tower with outpatient clinics will join the Center for Advanced Pediatrics, a Support Center and more than 20 acres of green space at Children’s North Druid Hills campus.

In 2020, the project received a $200 million donation from the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation, the largest donation in Children’s history. It is also the single largest naming gift to a freestanding pediatric hospital.

In January 2020, Georgia Power Foundation made a $15 million donation to help with construction of the new campus.

In early 2020, workers started clearing the land that would be used to construct Arthur M. Blank Hospital.

In May 2022, construction crews completed the highest point of the building's structure.

In November 2023, Children’s announced that Arthur M. Blank Hospital will open September 29, 2024.

On September 29, 2024, Children's opened Arthur M. Blank Hospital. With the opening of the new hospital, clinical services at Egleston Hospital, as well as the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Centers on the Scottish Rite campus, moved to Arthur M. Blank Hospital. Hughes Spalding and Scottish Rite Hospitals both remain open to serve the community.

Arthur M. Blank Hospital is the largest healthcare project in the history of Georgia.
