    Louis and Phyllis Friedman Building at Greater Baltimore Medical Center Opens

    The new Louis and Phyllis Friedman Building at Greater Baltimore Medical Center has opened to patients. Located in Towson, Maryland, the 117,000-square-foot addition features two clinical floors, each comprising a 30-bed medical-telemetry unit. Each new patient room is able to accommodate patient and clinical staff needs, allows space to safely maneuver and features advanced sound proofing to facilitate the rest and healing process.

    The COVID-19 pandemic encouraged the design team to think strategically about contact-isolation situations. A new alcove allows medical staff to visualize patients without entering the room and a unique patient server permits them to easily pass medical supplies from outside the room reducing the need to enter and exit the space. The unit design allows the ability to create a “pandemic mode” that can exhaust air to the outside in a timely manner to increase protection against infectious diseases.

    The addition also features a new main entry, three-story atrium, retail pharmacy, café, wellness center and conference center. The project team includes Hammes Healthcare, DPR Construction and Hord Coplan Macht.

    The new Louis and Phyllis Friedman Building is one of two major capital projects that are part of GBMC’s Promise Project. The other is the Sandra R. Berman Pavilion, a new 70,000-square-foot cancer center that will open in early 2025.
