Gov. Jon S. Corzine toured the construction site of the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro.
The facility, which will replace the hospital’s current site on Witherspoon Ave. in Princeton, is being built on 50 acres of a planned 160-acre health campus between Scudders Mill Road and the Millstone River.
The governor lauded the project for “incorporating the use of green technologies” and “for the creation of new green jobs that will be required in areas such as cogeneration and solar energy.” The facility is expected to open in 2011.
