THE STEVEN & ALEXANDRA COHEN CHILDREN’S MEDICAL CENTER OF NEW YORK

This project began with the creation of a master plan for the Cohen Children’s Medical Center and continued with the implementation of this ambitious building.

The ground floor houses a new 23,000SF pediatric emergency department with the second and third floors containing a 25-bed pediatric intensive care unit and a 25-bed medical/surgical unit. The nursing units were planned to minimize nursing staff travel with support spaces strategically located near staff stations, each supporting half of the unit. The first floor was built as a shell space for a planned pediatric operating room expansion which E4H is now in the process of completing. This building achieved LEED Silver Certification.
