St Luke's Regional Hospital Masterplan
b o i s e , i d a h o
Founded in 1902 with only 6 beds, St Luke's Hospital has grown to be the state of Idaho's largest employer and leading health service provider in the region. Over it's lifetime, the hospital has seen multiple expansions: 1920s, 1952, 1966, 1967, 1977, 1999, and 2001.
The $400 million dollar expansion calls for an overall total floor area of 567,000 sq ft (357,000 sq ft medical tower and 100,000 sq ft medical offices).
The massive project will be multi-phased project spanning approximately 6-10 years.
This project has not come without opposition. Local residents have suggested expanding the competing St. Luke's Meridian campus, as opposed to the downtown facility, due to the city's growth. However, the St. Luke's downtown campus has always been the primary hub for the hospital and wants to maintain that legacy.

This building will be a replacement for the current Central Plant located on West Jefferson Street. It will service the entire downtown Boise St. Luke’s hospital campus. The Central Plant will link in via underground tunnels, which allow essential building utilities and logistics to travel to and from the hospital more efficiently. Once this building is online, the old Central Plant across the street will be taken offline and demolished to make way for the future Medical Office Plaza and North Tower.

The new parking garage will serve as the primary parking location for St. Luke’s Boise. It will be built along State Street. Engineers designed the new parking garage to hold more than 1,130 cars, which will be needed when the Boise medical center is completely built out. St. Luke’s is committed to limiting the height of the parking structure while accommodating city parking requirements, so the structure is six stories above ground, with two floors below.
