BETHESDA, Md. (May 18, 2022) The Washington Public Works Department Bethesda, part of Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC), is managing the medical center addition and alterations project at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. The project began in 2016 and is expected to last until 2028. The project will include the phased demolition of existing aging infrastructure and construction of a new facility with world-class facility standards within the existing footprint. The result will be a net addition of approximately 135,000 sq. ft. of medical center space and a significantly upgraded, right-sized facility for improved medical center operations, patient care and experience.
