Adolfson & Peterson Construction Breaks Ground on Expansion at Methodist Landmark Hospital Emergency Room

$2.3 million hospital expansion will elevate emergency patient care in San Antonio

Adolfson & Peterson Construction (AP), a national, family-owned construction management and contracting company, recently started construction on an expansion of the Emergency Room (ER) at Methodist Landmark Hospital in northwest San Antonio.

Located at 5510 Presidio Pkwy., the project involves expanding the current ER by 1,850 square feet and adding six additional patient beds. This enlargement will allow the hospital to better serve its increasing volume of emergency cases, improve patient flow, alleviate overcrowding and enhance the overall quality of care. The $2.3 million project kicked off in April 2025, with an estimated completion scheduled for September 2026.

The entire project scope encompasses 3,500 square feet which includes both interior structural improvements and the installation of advanced medical equipment to support higher patient capacity. Construction efforts will focus on enlarging the ER’s footprint, repurposing underutilized spaces and upgrading critical infrastructure, including plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems.

“Partnering with Methodist Landmark Hospital on its emergency room expansion is an opportunity to directly support the hospital’s mission of delivering exceptional care,” said Taylor Starr, Senior Project Manager at Adolfson & Peterson Construction. “This project is about more than increasing square footage. It’s about enhancing the hospital’s ability to serve the community with timely, high-quality care. By expanding capacity and upgrading critical infrastructure, we’re helping create a space to meet growing patient needs.”

LK Design Group is serving as the architect.
