History In 2014 Cleveland Clinic Children's entered into a collaboration with Akron Children's Hospital to open up a pediatric and adult congenital heart program. In 2017 administrators from Cleveland Clinic announced the construction of a new $20 million, 120,000-square-foot, pediatric outpatient center. While the new facility will join children's primary and specialty outpatient care in one location, inpatients would still be housed at the M Building. The new building was constructed by firm Turner Construction, designed by HKS and consists of 50 exam rooms, 20 pediatric infusion rooms, and four operating rooms. The building opened to patients in 2018 and is now known as the R Building. In 2019 it was announced that Akron Children's Hospital and the Cleveland Clinic would be expanding the pediatric and adult congenital heart program that was started 2014. The expansion consisted of two new centers, located at Akron Children's and Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital. In addition, five-more-years was added to the agreement.
