Dean and St. Mary's unveiled drawings for the newly named St. Mary's Janesville Hospital.

The $140 million campus will include a 50-bed hospital, and physicians' offices in southeast Janesville.

It's a big commitment in a time when many high-priced development projects are sitting on the shelf.

"I think that what's keeping this project going is the community support for additional health care services. Our Dean physician partners have had almost a 100 year history in Janesville, serving the community, and we're just really excited to be their partner," said Mary Starman-Harrison, president and CEO of SSM Healthcare Wisconsin.

Janesville-based construction company J.P. Cullen & Son could break ground as early as November.

The hospital is expected to bring 300 new jobs to Janesville and is scheduled to be completed in 2010.

On Wednesday, officials met with residents at a hotel in Janesville to discuss what can be done to better serve the community.
