Two large hospitals could be built within a stone’s throw from one another along a stretch of Baseline Road in Broomfield that’s already dense with health care facilities.
UCHealth has submitted to Broomfield city planners a proposal for a new hospital on the northwest corner of the Baseline Road (Colorado Highway 7) and Interstate 25 interchange, while AdventHealth has submitted plans for a facility just across the street on the southwest corner of that interchange.
