Addition to Roswell Park Cancer Institute New facility will connect to the main hospital building Roswell Park Cancer Institute is building an 11-story Clinical Sciences Center on the northwest corner of Michigan Avenue and Carlton Street. The 142,000-square-foot facility will connect to the main hospital building. It will include a breast care center, a new mammography center, an expanded chemotherapy infusion clinic, a clinic for adolescents and young adults, patient education programs and office space for physicians and researchers. Construction of the Clinical Sciences Center stems from growth in clinical demand—a nearly 40 percent increase in patients at the comprehensive cancer center over the past five years and a 60 percent rise in outpatient visits over the past decade. Relocation of some services to the new center also will allow for renovation and expansion of other services in the main hospital building.
The project is envisioned in two phases. Phase one, at a cost of $40 million, will involve completion of seven floors by fall 2015. The building was designed by FXFOWLE Architects of New York City.
