The University of Chicago Medical Center is an elite patient treatment and research campus located in the Hyde Park area on the south side of Chicago, Illinois.
The Center for Care and Discovery was built in 2011 and is a state-of-the-art treatment facility. This project entailed the build-out of the 2 remaining floors of the building as patient rooms, including observation bed, isolation rooms, and a burn unit.
The facility now contains a new custom air handling unit and all associated work will be designed and built in pre-determined location on the 2nd floor of the building. The focus of this project was to provide the most efficient and aesthetically pleasing rooms for both patients and staff.
Milhouse provided MEP/FP Engineering Services for this project along with Albert Kahn and Associates out of Detroit, Michigan. Milhouse provided design for the HVAC, Mechanical, Plumbing, Medical, Gas, Fire Protection, Lighting and Power systems along with other specific system tie-ins to the DDC controls, Emergency Power and Chiller Plant systems.
Milhouse took the lead in the existing building systems survey and will be responsible for final production of the Construction Documents and Permit Submission Plans.
