Hackensack University Medical Center

Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC), one of the two flagship academic medical centres of the Hackensack Meridian Health System, is building a new pavilion that will improve the quality of care. The Helena Theurer Pavilion will be a new 11-story, 530,000-square-metre building that will include 24 state-of-the-art operating rooms, with six robotic operating rooms and an intra-operative MRI; 50 intensive care rooms for patients; 100 private rooms for patients, doctors/surgeons and a 50-bed orthopaedic facility with a CT scanner.

The aura of eternity guaranteed by Roman travertine is well known throughout the world. This project effectively demonstrates that tradition and innovation can be combined to provide an unparalleled aesthetic result based on the noteworthy social utility of such a structure.
