Project Overview

Lindamood performed demolition and excavation of the historic St. Paul University Hospital campus, once a cornerstone of the UT Southwestern system. The project included removal of seven interconnected buildings and two expansive parking lots within an active medical district.

One of the primary structures — a twelve-story tower and the oldest building on the site — was safely brought down through controlled implosion. The work required careful sequencing, engineered planning, and coordination to protect adjacent facilities and maintain uninterrupted campus operations.

Key project elements included:

• Demolition of seven buildings within an active healthcare campus

• Controlled implosion of a 12-story landmark structure

• Demolition and excavation of two large parking lots

• Coordination to avoid disruption to ongoing hospital operations

• Integrated demolition and earthwork under a single contract

The project was executed under strict schedule constraints, utilizing innovative removal methods to ensure safety, operational continuity, and efficient transition to future redevelopment.
