Presence Center for Advanced Care – Opening September 2015!

On Saturday, August 29th, TGRWA attended the final design team walk-through of the new Presence Center for Advanced Care at Saint Joseph Hospital in Chicago, IL with the Project’s Architect, RTKL. TGRWA provided the structural design, working drawings and construction phase services for the 10-story, 380,000 square foot building located in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago. The building includes a ground floor cancer center, three floors of parking, a diagnostic and treatment center, four outpatient surgical suites, three medical office floors and a mechanical penthouse at the roof. The building structure includes flat plate post-tensioned concrete slabs in the parking floors and conventionally reinforced concrete flat plate floors above supported by reinforced concrete columns and straight shaft caissons to rock.
