The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston broke ground on an outpatient care and clinical research facility to be known as the Yawkey Center for Cancer Care. It was designed by Zimmer Gunsul Frasca Architects in conjunction with Miller Dyer Spears, a Boston-based architectural and planning firm.
ZGF is the design architect and MDS is the associate architect. Walsh Brothers of Boston is the construction manager.
The 275,000-square-foot, 13-story building is designed to provide a collaborative environment across disciplines. Another goal is to integrate art and nature into the center and make the area more pedestrian-friendly.
The center will seek a silver LEED rating.
