Top beam lifted into place on October 2, 2009

On Friday, October 2, the final steel beam—adorned with heartfelt messages and signatures from staff and employees—was lifted into place on top of the new medical tower.

To celebrate the “topping out” and mark this major milestone in the construction, employees, volunteers and families gathered on the top floor of the Colby Campus parking garage for a short ceremony.

Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson joined CEO Dave Brooks, Father John Rashford and Sister Dorothy in speaking at the ceremony. View more photos of the ceremony.

Since September 2008, the third graders of Lakewood's English Crossing Elementary School have had a virtual front-row seat learning about the new 12-story medical tower. On May 29, the class went on a two-hour field tour of the construction site to wrap up their year-long learning experience.
