North Carolina Cancer Hospital

MHAworks, in a joint venture with ZGF of Seattle, designed the North Carolina Cancer Hospital, as well as the expansion of the emergency department simultaneously.

The 400,000 square feet, $200 million dollar facility focused primarily on clinical programs, but also served as a traditional research facility. The facility included, expanded, and enhanced multidisciplinary clinic space, specially designed facilities for high-technology tumor assessment imaging and treatment, a 50-bed inpatient unit and state-of-the-art infusion suite, enhanced amenities for patient treatment as well as patient and family support. Also included:  teleconferencing facilities to connect UNC physicians and the state’s community-based physicians in patient treatment planning, a three-fold expansion of dedicated space specially designed for the growing number of pediatric cancer patients and a healing environment emphasizing natural light, indoor courtyards, gardens and public art. 

MHAworks also performed full-time construction administration on this project, retaining an on-site trailer for the duration of construction with our project manager on site each day. This project was delivered under the Construction Manager at Risk method.
