Mayo Clinic – Bold. Forward. Unbound. in Rochester

Project Overview

• A large part of the project encompasses two new, nine-story clinical buildings at the center of the downtown campus of Mayo Clinic in Rochester
• A skybridge horizontally links the two new buildings with the existing Gonda Building, allowing Mayo Clinic’s multidisciplinary care teams to connect effectively across the site
• Designing through the lens of Mayo Clinic’s primary value, “The needs of the patient come first,” the design transforms access to the spectrum of patient services —from labs and imaging to consultations and treatments — by creating adjacencies in dynamic care “neighborhoods” which will both streamline the patient experience and better support Mayo Clinic’s collaborative model of care
• Double-height winter gardens are located at the center of these care neighborhoods, uniting them and providing light-filled spaces with spectacular views of the city
• Care environments will be served behind the scenes by highly flexible technological infrastructure containing mechanical, data and robotic delivery systems that support pioneering treatments while allowing prioritization of human connections. The seamless integration of digital capabilities blurs traditional distinctions between inpatient, outpatient, and virtual care to support patients throughout their healthcare journey
