When complete, the new hospital is expected to be the tallest building in the southwest metropolitan Atlanta area.

Building groups consider their efforts well lauded only by way of contracts of these types, say contracts involving hospitals and other establishment including hotels and educational institutions. The Building Group should consider itself very much honored by this contract that will benefit KBR by a long way.
