CATAWBA COUNTY, N.C. — Atrium Health has won rezoning approval from the town of Cornelius to build its new hospital there.
On Monday evening, the town’s board of commissioners voted to approve the rezoning for the long-planned project named Atrium Health Lake Norman. Atrium rezoned 35.6 acres at the southwest corner of Westmoreland Road and U.S. Highway 21 for the project, which was approved by state regulators in 2021.
Atrium Health Lake Norman calls for a first phase with a 200,000-square-foot hospital with 38 beds, along with 72,000 square feet of medical office space, according to a site plan available in town documents.
“The approval was the last step in the process and we are both pleased and appreciative of the unanimous approval and support from the Town of Cornelius,” an Atrium spokesperson said in a statement to the Charlotte Business Journal.
