EMH&T is proud to be part of the design team bringing this state-of-the-art sports facility to the Columbus Arena District!

The long-anticipated new hospital tower at OSU’s Wexner Medical Center is now poised to move forward. The $1.8 billion facility will begin construction in October. EMH&T’s Urban Design Division began working on this project in 2015, assisting with programming for the facility. Other EMH&T divisions involved included Water Resources, Geospatial Solutions, Land Survey, Traffic Engineering, and Development. And as far back as 2012, EMH&T was working with OSU designing the relocation of Cannon Drive, which opened up the developable space where the hospital will rise.

EMH&T President Sandy Doyle-Ahern has been named a 2020 Columbus Business First C-Suite Award winner in the Companies with 100+ employees category. Winners of this annual recognition represent the most admired CEOs and other top executives in Central Ohio as determined by a vote of their peers. Winners are selected based on several characteristics, including who inspires and encourages them.

EMH&T welcomes two new employees to the firm.
