The $448-million contract includes the construction of a new, 10-story municipal health lab on the Harlem Hospital Campus. The project will consist of approximately 21,800 sq. m. (234,600 sq. ft.) of new construction including offices, laboratories and clinical facilities.
The lower portion of the new building will include a lobby, auditorium, walk-in testing center and several support areas.
The site is being prepared and graded, and three existing buildings will be demolished to make room for the new structure.
