There's still a huge amount of auxiliary and grouns work to be done. I believe they're framing out a bit more of the building with steel that will have a terrace on top iirc. Two skybridges are being installed now, but I believe there's supposed to be a whole skywalk to the train station as well. The bulk of the skyline visible work is coming to an end though

Yeah I spent a few days walking through this building in September and it has a LOOONNNGG way to go in terms of much of the interior construction work. Late 2021 it’ll be open. Building is pretty cool though, will be the most sophisticated hospital space in the world when it opens.

Do you know anything about the areas that were 'finished' to treat covid patients, did that ever open? Other then alot of the patient rooms being flexible, what does sophisticated mean when it comes to a hospital?

Remember back when Penn announced this site as the location for a new stand alone building, we all talked about it maybe being the worlds tallest hospital. Oh well, it's turning out Ok, certainly better then its weird older brother across the street (and over a couple of bridges). I'm still not sold on the change of window height on the nose and tail, the rounded ends; it just doesn't look very refined. Maybe someday Lord Foster will give Philly one of his first rate designs, something cutting edge.

What plans does Penn have to their older hospital buildings along Spruce St?

That will be an out-patient facility, not an in-patient hospital like Penn's New Patient Pavilion.

And apparently, one of the most advanced outpatient facilities in the world.

Seems a bit premature of a post since I think it's slated to open in the summer, but interior work is definitely in progress. Recently there has been a lot of progress on the skybridges, and it looks like they're going to do some reimagining of the facade on the old hospital where the bridge is connecting over the old ED because there is a steel skeleton attached around the connection. Once the ED moves, I imagine they'll bring the wall down to the ground to create more rooms where ambulances currently park

So there's some oddities going on in the back (river side), and I'm wondering if anyone knows what's going on. It looks like there's an extra floor that wasn't in renderings before. It's being clad with (for now?) non-matching black, and meets the main building mass awkwardly. Some other flat/lighter color (and cheaper looking) metal cladding is showing up around it too that looks more like the accent color around the vertical window strip. It looks kind of cheap and out of place, like they ran out of their primary cladding material


All sorts of weirdness here where it meets up with the rest of the building. The windowless metal cladding was originally supposed to curve in here.


Compared with the virtual tour (it's hard to find other renders of this angle):


Anyone have any info on a design change?

Wow thats a whole extra floor, interesting. That was probably a approved design change right?

They didn't mess up and add an extra floor did that

Well I got the cladding answer already lol. It looks like the windows are getting kind of screened over. There's even a smaller second floor on top of that! I wonder if either are possibly mechanical or something.

Anyone have any updates on this one? This has got to be complete by now - no?

No, still a lot of miscellaneous exterior work left between missing cladding and not even starting the ED ambulance bay, and lots of interior construction lights. Probably a couple months left at least.
