Future
When its new buildings are completed, expected in January 2015, the MUHC will close several of its current hospital facilities and replace them with the new state-of-the-art campus at the former Glen Railyards, near the Vendôme metro station. No plans for the reuse of the current hospitals have been published. The present site of the Montreal General Hospital, to be called the Mountain Campus, will remain open as a downtown general hospital with an Emergency Department with level 1 trauma unit. This plan received the green light from the Quebec government in June 2007 and will proceed as a controversial public private partnership (PPP). The future location of The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital) has not yet been determined (see The Gazette, June 19, 2010 http://www.mni.mcgill.ca/media/news/item/?item_id=164315). The McGill-affiliated, Shriners' Hospital for Crippled Children plans to move to a separate building on the MUHC Glen Campus, which will also have a pediatric pavilion housing the Montreal Children's Hospital.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“I say—the future is a serious matter—
And so—for God’s sake—hock and soda-water!”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

—Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
“It is a time when one’s spirit is subdued and sad, one knows not why; when the past seems a storm-swept desolation, life a vanity and a burden, and the future but a way to death.”
