Main Line Health is seeking to build a 145,000-square-foot, three-story medical center at the corner of Lloyd and Manor avenues in Caln Township near Downingtown Borough. Services provided would include primary and specialty care, imaging and laboratory services, outpatient surgery and urgent care. Downingtown Health Center would sit on a 14.5-acre site, on the northern portion of a 61-acre property. Main Line Health is the equitable owner, and Wild Meadows LLC owns the property. The site is zoned Residential (R-2), and a hospital or medical center is permitted in such a district. The township requires 444 parking spaces, and MLH intends to build 445 spaces, which is 60 fewer spaces than originally planned, after MLH sought input from residents and the township. The township and PennDOT are in negotiations with the medical provider to enact a long-term fix and realignment of G O Carlson Boulevard. A conditional use hearing on the project was continued to a later, yet-to-be-determined date. Township solicitor Kristin Camp said that the hearing was “just one step in a long process.”
