Foundation work is progressing for the Victoria and Lloyd Goldman Health Care Pavilion, formerly called the Northwell Medical Pavilion, a 15-story medical facility for Lenox Hill Hospital at 1345 Third Avenue on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Designed by Ennead Architects with EwingCole as the medical architect and developed by Northwell Health and The University Financing Foundation, the 200,000-square-foot outpatient center will stand nearly 215 feet tall and offer specialized cancer care services, imaging and lab testing, cardiac care, neuroscience programs, a sleep study center, acute and chronic disease management, social work services, and more. JB&B is the MEP engineer, Severud Associates is the structural engineer, and Lendlease is the general contractor for the $450 million project, which is located in Lenox Hill between East 76th and East 77th Streets.

Excavation concluded since our last update in early July, when crews were still working to unearth the sprawling site, following the demolition of six partially vacant structures that formerly occupied it. Recent photographs show the reinforced concrete foundation slab and perimeter walls fully formed and some of the lower cellar levels under construction. A tower crane has also been erected in preparation for the building’s climb above street level, which could begin before the end of spring. Additional machinery is being used to hoist pieces of rebar and concrete formwork into the site.
