The facility layout reflects a typical PPG model with two pods of exam rooms with the care team situated in the middle to allow patients to come in without running into staff areas.This set up also gives the care team collaborative space with separation from patients. With maximized patient floor space, staff is able to work more efficiently, and patients spend less time waiting around. The care team area is partially open to the original clerestory, which exposes natural daylight for staff.

Embracing the history of this facility, finishes like exposed beams and brick, artwork, and furniture coordination reflect an industrial aesthetic.Clinical areas have closed ceilings for privacy and comfort, but the waiting room and staff lounge feature historical elements like original deck ceilings and brick walls. In its entirety, this space houses a spacious waiting room, in-house retail pharmacy, dual-sided exam rooms, family medicine, urgent care, a back-of-house nurses station, staff break room, x-ray room, lab work, consult rooms, and other support spaces. |
