Liberty Road Business Community

Northwest Hospital anchors the eight mile-long Liberty Road Corridor, which also offers a lively mix of national and locally-owned retailers. Northwest Hospital has invested over $120 million in renovations and expansions over the past 10 years, including a new 55,000-square-foot Class A medical office building. With 1,600 employees, the hospital, along with six nearby mega churches with approximately 18,000 parishioners, drive demand for Liberty’s 14 shopping centers and over two million square feet of retail space. Strong median household incomes and high average daily traffic counts position the corridor for further growth.
