The 265k sf tower utilizes a transfer level of truss beam at the top of the 8-story parking garage to achieve efficient core to curtain wall depths and core dimensions.
Circulation into and out of the tower was critical as faculty need direct access to the clinical spaces at the Center for Care and Discovery but also to ground level. Utilizing an existing parking garage stair tower, the project connects directly to the ground via a transfer pavilion.

Renovation of Mitchell Hospital into a new cancer center

Any idea if these things are actually happening? We've been hearing about Mitchell being turned into a new cancer center for years, but nothing has happened. Was the new faculty tower formally presented, or was this just a design? Thanks!
