OAKLAND CITY, Ind. (WFIE) - Oakland City Mayor James Deffendall announced some good news Friday when it came to the old hospital building.
The mayor says the space will become an urgent care center, doctors’ office and possibly a pharmacy. He says there’s also a plan to build studio apartments there.
The urgent care will be an Access Medical Clinic.
The old hospital is along Highway 64 (Morton Street) as you head into Oakland City.
The building has been empty for 30 years and in the past there has been talk over the years about possible uses. It was built in 1968 and is nearly 34,000 square feet.
Officials say this project is a million-dollar investment.
