## Resource

Charleston is set to unveil a $1 billion cancer hospital, the first of its kind in South Carolina, designed to bring all cancer care under one roof—with 100 inpatient rooms, 14 operating suites, and 24/7 urgent care. Featuring proton therapy (the only one in the state), it aims to eliminate out-of-state travel for patients, easing stress and costs while keeping families close by. The project faces a historic challenge: fitting a modern medical giant into Charleston’s character. MUSC hopes this “one-stop shop” will boost research, attract top talent, and expand access—especially for rural patients. Construction finishes in 2030, funded by grants, donations, and institutional support, while planners are already tackling traffic and parking headaches during build-out.
