Highrise Tower Posted September 10, 2019 Author Share Posted September 10, 2019 More info from MDACC about the Inpatient Bed Tower. The four site location selections, sizing, budget, and time frame. There are two towers planned then. Inpatient Bed Tower, and the 25-story office building. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortune Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Are we sure they will be building a 25 story office building? The description “and MD Anderson's first facility on its Mid Campus, a 25-story building to support current office space and future growth needs.” Sounds like their existing 25 story Mid Campus 1 building. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: We maybe speaking of Phase 4, the buildouts on the top floors of the new tower. See latest (9/20/19 posting) Seems like their Mid Campus is supposed to be "Town Center" Mixed-Use. Listed in orange. Later describes several hotels and housing units. Believe it is all conceptional master planning. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSirDingle Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Those are some awfully expensive buildings you got there, especially that inpatient bed tower at 600 mil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobruss Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I believe hospitals are one of the most expensive types of projects, due to all of the medical equipment, extra electrical buildout, finishes and special needs built in. Look at your next hospital bill. You don't pay those kind of prices for a night at the most expensive hotel in the world. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highrise Tower Posted November 13, 2019 Author Share Posted November 13, 2019 https://www.virtualbx.com/construction-preview/austin-ut-system-regents-all-set-to-release-159-million-for-projects-at-five-campuses/ Austin (Travis County) — The University of Texas System Board of Regents have teed up six construction projects on five campuses and are expected to authorize expenditures totaling $159 million. $14.5 million to UT MD Anderson Cancer Care to renovate the Alkek Hospital Main Building. The project involves general renovations throughout Floor 12 of the Alkek Hospital to renew finishes and infrastructure systems, to restore patient rooms that had been partially removed from service to full service, to renovate the nurse stations, and to enclose medicine preparation areas. Floor 11 will be impacted as hard ceilings on that floor will need to be removed and replaced. The renovations are needed to increase clinical capacity, improve the overall patient experience, and bring the sterile processing area into compliance with accreditation requirements. Of the $14.5 million allocated, $10,200,000 goes to building cost. This is also a CMAR delivery project. Design development is being approved this week and the Notice to Proceed to construction is scheduled for April 2020. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not claim to be an expert on cancer. I believe there are over 100 different types of cancers. The cell has a mind-boggling complexity and amount of information within it. They are the basic units of all life and they are very adaptable. The book "Emperor of All Maladies". gives some idea. I hope I'm very wrong, but I think this fight is going to go on for some time. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boone Pickens Academic Tower - Floors 20 and 21 Finish Out Mid Campus Building 1 - Floors 23 and 24 Replace UPS Systems - CPB Data Center 2/3 ACB: Consistent with the institution's Master Facilities Framework 2030, U. T. M. D. Anderson Cancer Center is proposing to construct two new buildings, Ambulatory Clinical Building 2 (2ACB) and Ambulatory Clinical Building 3 (3ACB). These new buildings are to be located on the institution's Texas Medical Center campus (TMC Campus), south of Holcombe Boulevard and bounded by Pressler Street on the south, Richard J.V. Johnson Avenue on the east, and Fannin Street on the west. While the project includes two separate buildings with integrated parking garages, 2ACB and 3ACB are expected to be joined at the podium level to form one contiguous ambulatory treatment facility (2/3 ACB) that is proximate to and interconnected with the existing Lowry and Peggy Mays Clinic and the Dan L. Duncan Building. Overall, the 2/3 ACB facility is anticipated to consist of approximately 3,300,000 gross square feet (GSF). 2ACB will consist of 950,000 GSF of clinical and departmental program space located on seventeen floors above grade and 550,000 GSF of parking located on three floors below grade as well as a central parking structure. In total, there will be 1,500 parking spaces added on five levels. 3ACB will consist of 1,500,000 GSF of clinical and departmental program space located on nineteen floors above grade and 300,000 GSF of below-grade parking adding another 785 parking spaces. The project is also expected to include the construction of two seven-story connectors that will complete a circulation route between 2/3 ACB, the Mays Clinic, and the Duncan Building, forming a complete quadrangle around the central parking structure. The top of the parking structure will align with the existing exterior plaza decks of the Mays Clinic and the Duncan Building to form a raised exterior garden. If this recommendation is approved, the project is expected to proceed with requested inclusion in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) in August 2023, design development approval in May 2024, construction start in November 2024, and substantial completion in December 2027. Inpatient Bed Tower: U. T. M. D. Anderson Cancer Center is preparing to construct a new inpatient bed tower to be located proximate to and interconnected with the institution's Main Building complex, on a site currently occupied by the Percy and Ruth Leggett Jones Basic Research Building, the Bates- Freeman research building, and the Anderson Central Building. The proposed Bed Tower Mobilization project will involve a multi-step approach to include the vacating of approximately 527,100 square feet of existing buildings and preparations for demolition. To consolidate science research laboratories and clinical support functions currently housed in the buildings to be demolished, approximately 400,000 gross square feet of space will be renovated in other facilities proximate to existing inpatient services and associated clinical science laboratories. The project will also include abating vacated spaces, facility modifications to accept connections for temporary bridges installed around the site for the future inpatient bed tower, and detailed analysis and planning to facilitate the decoupling of utility infrastructure in anticipation of future building demolition. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like this site plan and cutaway includes the new ACBs from when Duncan and Mays were built. I would assume it's still mostly accurate? Mays at right and Duncan at bottom. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
