Medical College of Wisconsin Breaks Ground on New Project
MADISON, Wis. — The Medical College of Wisconsin recently broke ground on the construction of a new 225,000-square-foot professional office building that will provide office space for up to 1,200 faculty and staff members.
Designed by Flad Architects, the six-story, state-of-the-art office building will be located on the Milwaukee Regional Medical Center campus and will create a collaborative work environment that unites faculty and staff, currently dispersed across the campus, under one roof. By consolidating faculty and staff, the new building will create synergies and efficiencies, as well as enhance collaboration among divisions, departments and programs.
Located centrally and joined by physical connectors to MCW’s existing educational and research buildings to the north and Froedtert Hospital’s patient care facilities to the south, the professional office building will be a literal and figurative bridge that links the clinical, research, educational and community engagement missions of the institution. The building design integrates shared collaboration areas and support functions along primary horizontal and vertical pathways, leveraging new and existing spaces to create centers of activity that connect people across the system. Open spaces between floors and transparency between office neighborhoods enhance connectivity and will provide opportunities for daylight and view to all building occupants.
