Heapy is providing the MEP design for the $60.5 million, four-story University of Cincinnati Gardner Neuroscience Institute. The 113,000 square-foot building will incorporate welcoming spaces and natural light, which studies have shown promote patient healing. Energy Modeling was done to determine a solution to lower the energy cost of the all-glass building. Solar Shades will be used to manage the Solar gain of the glass.
When completed in 2019, the building will house more than 125 faculty doctors and researchers with specialized staff. All outpatient neurological care and patient education activities will be provided here while also providing patients better access to advanced clinical trials.
The building will have convenient amenities including underground parking, café, patient lounge, auditorium and an outdoor rehabilitation space.
