Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre is proposing a new addition to its complex. The new wing will be named the Hurvitz Brain Sciences Centre. The proposed development includes a two storey storey Brain Sciences Wing with one additional level below grade. The aim of the new centre is to provide specially designed spaces where world-class brain sciences research and care can be nurtured. Compared to the existing premises at Sunnybrook, the new addition will offer more natural lighting to the interior. 37 beds will be accommodated in the new wing.
Additional parking spaces, activity rooms and a courtyard will also be added as part of the new wing. Designed by HDR Architects, the entire project will be funded by Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre.
Once complete, the new addition will add 124,000 square feet of space for psychiatry. The Hurvitz Brain Sciences wing will be built between the D and the F wings of the Health Sciences building.
Construction is expected to start soon. In the meantime, check out our database file below for more information. You can join the discussion in the associated Forum thread, linked below, or leave a comment in the space provided on this page.
