County records describe a new medical and nursing care building at 1500 Haddon Ave in Camden City. It would be an institutional building of about 64,138 square feet, with a reported construction cost of roughly $22.4 million.
The records do not say what is on the site now, who will run the building, or what kind of care it will provide. Searches of news coverage, city planning board agendas and developer sites found nothing that clearly refers to this project. Hospital campus projects nearby, on the 1500 and 1600 blocks of Haddon Ave, appear in older city planning board agendas. Those could not be tied to this project, so no link is assumed.
What it could mean nearby
- Medical and nursing care uses can bring staff, patient and visitor trips, so traffic and parking could change on Haddon Ave. No traffic study was found.
- A $22.4 million building would likely involve construction jobs and permanent healthcare jobs, but no figures were found.
Where it stands
The county's latest filing is dated 2026-07-02. No city approval, hearing or decision could be confirmed online. Camden projects of this type usually need site plan review by the city planning board before building permits are issued.
