Event to mark completion of Longview acute-care facility
FORT COLLINS — Officials of Larimer County Behavioral Health will celebrate completion of its 55,000-square-foot Longview Campus acute-care facility on Friday at 2260 W. Trilby Road in Fort Collins.
A Native American blessing and land acknowledgement will be held at 9 a.m., followed by a ribbon cutting at 9:45 a.m., then an open house with self-guided tours for the public from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Law-enforcement and first responders will have their own open house from 12:30 to 1:45 p.m., and behavioral health care providers and partners will tour the facility from 1:45 until 3 p.m.
Haselden Construction, Ditesco Project and Construction Services and Denver-based Page Southerland Page were contracted to design and build the campus, which was named for Long View Farm Open Space, which is located near the campus, as well as the long journey toward mental wellness and recovery.
