Once a buzzword and only a possibility, prefabrication [or prefab] is now common practice on most construction projects.

Construction recently completed at Overlake’s campus in Bellevue, with a five-story, 240,000-square-foot expansion that will see its first patients in early February.

Based on their recent experience working on Overlake Medical Center’s Project FutureCare, GLY Senior Project Managers Jon Friedrichsen and Jeff Crawford share their perspectives on current trends and the future of healthcare in construction.

Project FutureCare continues to transform the Overlake Medical Center landscape as GLY pushes construction of the New East Tower closer to completion.

The Seattle Cancer Care Alliance [SCCA] announced the start of its 150,000 square-foot outpatient cancer treatment center on its South Lake Union campus. Connected via skybridge to its existing treatment center, the new tower will be the largest single construction site project in the alliance’s history.

Seattle Cancer Care Alliance [SCCA] broke ground on a new six-story, 150,000 square-foot outpatient cancer treatment clinic on its South Lake Union Campus. The largest single construction project in SCCA history, the new building will feature a patient-centered design, highly specialized treatment clinics and state-of-the-art procedure suites to expand and enhance SCCA’s services and advance its ability to deliver world-class cancer care and conduct cutting-edge research.

The SCCA Expansion will include a three-level robotic parking garage, the largest in the Pacific Northwest, and one of the largest by scope and scale on the West Coast.

As we weather the COVID-19 crisis together, we must look for alternative ways to share knowledge and continue our journey in learning, exploring, and improving.

When Seattle Cancer Care Alliance’s new facility opens in 2022, patients will have a valet-style parking experience without the valet. The facility is installing a 70K SF automated parking garage under its five-story complex, providing a garage that will be both a convenience for patients and a functional parking solution for an odd-shaped lot.

Parking garages notoriously pose building design challenges. Despite a team's best creative efforts, it seems structural requirements often limit opportunities.

GLY + ZGF plan to install a three-level, robotic, space-saving parking garage beneath the upcoming addition to the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) clinic in Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood. The robotic garage will be the first of its kind for any medical center in the Puget Sound Region and the first of its size and scale on the West Coast.

Seattle Cancer Care Alliance’s clinic expansion in the South Lake Union neighborhood will provide cutting-edge treatment options for patients and will have another high-tech feature for those arriving by car: a robotic parking garage—the first of its kind for any medical center in the Puget Sound region, and the first of its size and scale on the West Coast.
