Plans for the new 250-bed general hospital to serve the beach area indicate that the first phase of construction will be completed by 1972. The new Beach Hospital, located on a 100,000 square foot site bounded on the east by N Ocean Blvd. (Highway A1A) and on the west by Seagrape Blvd., will replace the present Beach Hospital at 125 N Birch Rd.
