The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia expanded its facilities on its South Campus, where the LEED-certified Buerger Center consolidates and expands many of its outpatient services. The public and patient spaces that can benefit the most from daylight and a connection to nature have been designed to face the 2.6 acre landscaped plaza, which will connect the ground floor with the Colket Translational Research Building. A 12-story outpatient facility on top of a new, five-level parking garage, the project features a 14,000 square foot rooftop garden, as well as a landscaped plaza designed to support a variety of recreational and educational experiences for families, patients, and staff.
