PROJECT OVERVIEW
NYU Langone Medical Associates—Penn District has emerged as a beacon of comprehensive care within the heart of New York City. Located on the third floor of an historic building directly across from the Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station, the fit-out of this 18,000 square foot multi-specialty clinic enhances the accessibility of care for individuals who work and live within Hudson Yards and the emerging Penn District neighborhood.
The former loft space is ringed with large windows that face the south side of the train hall, framing sweeping views of Penn Station’s ornate marble façade and providing an abundance of natural light within the space. These features are the primary organizing elements of the facility’s floorplan, situating the entry area, waiting room, and patient circulation along the perimeter of the layout.
The prioritization of daylighting as the design approach facilitates wayfinding throughout the clinic, which is further reinforced through the integration of large stretch ceiling lighting systems at the major points of interaction between patients and staff. The remainder of the facility contains 25 exam rooms and three procedure rooms, while the endoscopy portion of the program operates as a self-contained unit with four endoscopy procedure rooms and ten bays that can flex for procedural preparation and recovery.
Our team worked closely with NYU Langone Health to select materials and furnishings that elevate the sense of sophistication within the space, reflecting the organization’s highly regarded standard of care.
