LF Driscoll is working with DPR Construction and Aegis Project Controls in an IPD-Lite arrangement on the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s 1.4 million square foot New Patient Tower. Philadelphia YIMBY recently shared new renderings that were submitted in a Civic Design Review submission.
From Philadelphia YIMBY:
Designed by Ballinger, with ZGF Architects as the consultant and interiors/clinical architects, the 1.4 million-square-foot facility will cost $1.9 billion to construct, which poises it a major component of CHOP’s $3.4 billion development plan. The new building’s roughly 480 beds will provide a significant capacity boost for its medical campus. At 434 feet and 26 stories in height, the sleek, curvy tower will rise well above the roughly 300-foot high-rise plateau of the Medical District, making a significant impact on the local skyline. …
The building itself will span a total of 1,394,315 square feet spread across 26 floors (note that the floor count on elevations is slightly higher, as it aligns with an adjacent hospital building’s floor count that will be connected to the new facility), and will feature two below-grade levels, as well.
