The Johns Hopkins Hospital retained Odell to plan and design a new Comprehensive Cancer Center for their East Baltimore Campus. The new building houses 5 linear accelerator radiation therapy treatment vaults, outpatient & inpatient chemotherapy, oncology outpatient programs, 126 inpatient beds, 16 operating rooms, 20 surgical intensive/intermediate care beds, support services including a blood bank, and central sterilization facilities. Project also includes 300 in-building parking spaces for patients and visitors, providing direct access to treatment spaces.
A major determinant for the form and design theme of the Comprehensive Cancer Center is its proximity to its historical neighbors. The design seeks to achieve a cohesive look for the Broadway edge of campus, while respecting the unique character of the Historic Billings, Marburg and Wilmer buildings. Red face brick is the major building material for the Comprehensive Cancer Center, accented with architectural precast panels designed to match the limestone on Billings.
