Popular Post Highrise Tower Posted March 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 27, 2023 February 22-23, 2023 Meeting of the U. T. System Board of Regents - Facilities Planning and Construction Committee Previous Actions: On January 22, 2020, the Chancellor approved this project for Definition Phase as the TMC3 Translation and Discovery Building. On September 23, 2022, the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Capital Projects approved the project name change to South Campus Research Building 5. On November 17, 2022, the project was included in the CIP with a total project cost of $668,300,000 with funding of $556,402,889 from Hospital Revenues, $69,897,111 from TRB Proceeds and $42,000,000 from PUF Bond Proceeds. Project Description: The proposed project will be a seven-story building with an additional two-level mechanical equipment penthouse. The scope of the project will include site work, which encompasses site specific utility infrastructure work; the interior finish-out of floors one through four, a central plaza sited between this building and a new Public Health Education and Research Building to be constructed under a concurrent project by U. T. Health Science Center - Houston, and the construction of a pedestrian bridge over Old Spanish Trail enabling connectivity of the South Campus buildings to the TMC Helix Park. Floors five through seven are to be completed under a separate project in approximately ten years. The project will position the institution to relocate and co-locate researchers that are currently distributed broadly across multiple aging buildings. The researchers will be moved to the southern section of the Texas Medical Center (TMC) Campus. The new facility is being designed with maximum flexibility to meet new and evolving research technologies and is to include wet and dry laboratories, core facilities to support research, conferencing facilities, collaboration spaces, and food and beverage amenities. The building will be designed with a focus on the well-being of the occupants, providing a high-quality place of work with access to natural light and connectivity to enable collaboration.

Highrise Tower Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 wow!! Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board Capital Expenditure Plan Report Fiscal Years 2023-2027 September 2022 The University of Texas Health Scicnes Center at Houston A few things that caught my eye for the TMC campus: Digital Innovation Tower - $84,000,000 Medical Hospital - $244,000,000 (!!!!) MSB Research Expansion Phase II - $200,000,000 Public Health Education and Research Building - $315,000,000 UTHealth Housing Phase 4 - $94,000,000 Some more on the UTHealth Digital Innovation Tower for the Research Park Complex. Texas House of Representatives Committee on Higher Education Interim Charge Two, Request for Information The University of Texas System September 1, 2020 The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston The UTHealth Houston two proposals for a research building connected to the new TMC3 project that would be the new hoe to the UTHealth School of Public Health and a Digital Innovation Tower on the south research campus for the UTHealth School of Biomedical Informatics. These to schools have set an explosion in enrollment due to the pandemic and student wanting to enter into the public health field or the informatics/artificial intelligence fields. * SBMI Summer 2020: +26.6% over last summer * SPH Summer 2020: +21.1% over last summer And both schools are seeing large increases in Fall enrollment as well. These two workforces that are facing shortages in Texas highlight bu the pandemic. It is estimated that more than 4/5 of all public health workforce are not formally trained in public health. Informatics and see of artificial intelligence are the ways future epidemics can be contact traced successfully without may of the privacy concerns. These demands for expended public health and informatics workforce stress the needs for funding for this infrastructure. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Urbannizer Posted June 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2023 UTHealth Houston School of Public Health breaks ground on a building that embodies the education, research and practice to keep Texans healthy https://www.uth.edu/news/story/uthealth-houston-school-of-public-health-breaks-ground-on-a-building-that-embodies-the-education-research-and-practice-to-keep-texans-healthy The most prestigious school of public health in the state and fourth-largest in the country, UTHealth Houston School of Public Health will break ground on a 10-story, 350,000-square-foot tower in the Texas Medical Center that underscores the school’s mission of health promotion and disease prevention, sustainable access to affordable health care with improved outcomes, and training the next generation of leaders in public health sciences. “This new, state-of-the-art facility will serve as a platform for our students, faculty and staff – allowing them to transform the lives and health of our communities through public health education and research,” said Giuseppe Colasurdo, MD, president and Alkek-Williams Distinguished Chair at UTHealth Houston. The design of the new building, with an estimated cost of $299 million, embraces sustainability with plans for rainwater harvesting for irrigation, abundant natural light, access to greenspace, an upper-level terrace, holistic teaching garden, and building automation programming. Located in the Texas Medical Center’s Helix Park, it will house state-of-the-art research laboratories and distance-learning technology, an auditorium, teaching kitchen for its dietetic interns, collaborative spaces, and classrooms in support of the school’s broad range of disciplines including epidemiology, genetics, nutrition, health policy, data science, and health promotion. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cityliving Posted June 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) UTHealth breaks ground on $299M research tower in Texas Medical Center's Helix Park The UTHealth Houston School of Public Health has broken ground on a $299 million research facility in the Texas Medical Center’s new Helix Park campus. UTHealth said the 10-story, 350,000-square-foot tower will help to advance the school's mission of pursuing health promotion and disease prevention, creating sustainable access to affordable health care and training the next generation of leaders in public health sciences The building will house research laboratories with distance-learning technology, an auditorium, a teaching kitchen for dietetic interns, collaborative spaces, and classrooms focusing on epidemiology, genetics, nutrition, health policy, data science and health promotion. “This new state-of-the-art facility will serve as a platform for our students, faculty and staff — allowing them to transform the lives and health of our communities through public health education and research,” Giuseppe Colasurdo, president of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, said in a statement. The building was designed with an emphasis on sustainability, UTHealth said. The tower will have systems for rainwater harvesting for irrigation, increased natural light, green spaces, a holistic teaching garden and building automation programming. Employees will also have access to an upper-level terrace UTHealth tapped Houston-based Kirksey Architecture to design the project in collaboration with Detroit, Michigan-based SmithGroup. Houston-based Vaughn Construction is serving as general contractor for the project. The new facility is scheduled to open in time for the fall semester in 2026. UTHealth's Houston campus was founded in 1967, and it now has community engagement centers and faculty across the state, including in Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, El Paso and Brownsville. The institution’s research efforts seek to address a wide range of health-related issues, including underserved border communities, DNA sequence analysis on a population scale, promoting healthy behaviors in schools and workplace safety on farms and factories. The new tower marks the latest addition to the TMC’s new 37-acre Helix Park. The first phase of the project is already well underway, with the first buildings set to open there later this year. On Jan. 10, TMC and Beacon Capital Partners announced Baylor College of Medicine will be the anchor for Dynamic One, one of Helix Park’s four industry buildings. Baylor's 114,000 square feet of lab and office space will span three floors of the 355,000-square-foot building. Dynamic One is one of several Helix Park buildings set to open at the end of 2023, according to TMC officials. Another is TMC’s own headquarters, which includes space for retail on the ground floor and offices for venture capital on the upper floors. In addition to laboratory and retail space, TMC’s headquarters includes space for lectures and presentations, including a 350-seat space in the atrium. On the building’s fourth and highest floor, three TMC member institutions — the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Texas A&M University and UTHealth — will have over 24,000 square feet of overlapping lab and office space. TMC CEO Bill McKeon has described Helix Park as a “medical city” district, with an emphasis on getting people to connect both inside and out of buildings and to be more than a research location. The Helix Park project is expected to create more than 26,000 permanent jobs and have a $5.4 billion annual economic impact. The campus’s eponymous helix-shaped parks, designed by Mikyoung Kim, are also expected to be among the Helix Park features opening in late 2023. The parks are intended to be an injection of green space, which McKeon has said is lacking on TMC’s current campuses. Retail kiosks are expected to set up shop in the parks, and outdoor event space will be available for performances.

Popular Post CREguy13 Posted June 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2023 TMC Helix Park is really starting to pick up momentum. Would love to see some of the other institutions break ground soon on their buildings and be great to land a big Life Science or Biotech company as a tenant in Dynamic One. How exciting! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChannelTwoNews Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 So, is this part of Helix Park now or is it still part of the Research Park? I seem to recall seeing that the adjacent SCRB 5 plan had a design and landscaping reminiscent of Helix Park that could tie in with that elevated crosswalk, but they weren't necessarily part of it either. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Highrise Tower Posted July 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2023 I don't think the UTHealth School of Public Health building has (physically) broken ground yet. Maybe the state funds have been released to proceed with construction? The breaking ground event banner has been posted a long the fence along Old Spanish Trail. Very cool!!

Highrise Tower Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Question about one of the renderings released for the new UTHealth School of Public Health building. Does anyone else see an unnamed building that's ghosted to the right? What is this about? Could this be the proposed UTHealth Digital Innovation Tower? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
