Òâ°ºÌåÓý

State-of-the-Art Cancer Care Facility

On behalf of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), Òâ°ºÌåÓý constructed the David H. Koch Center for Cancer Care, a 23-story 750,000 sq. ft. facility in the Upper East of Manhattan. The East 74th Street site sits directly adjacent to the FDR and overlooks the East River. The state-of-the-art facility now accommodates the latest treatments in hematologic cancer and radiation therapy.

Given the site’s proximity to an active highway, the team took special care to ensure the safety of the surrounding neighborhood. Before the start of construction, extensive planning went into the design of an award-winning fall and debris protection system that uses high-tensile fireproof netting. In addition, the team ensured open lines of communication with city agencies and community boards by convening “Construction Working Groups.”
