CHOP Continues Expansion with New Patient Tower

Excerpted from Healthcare Operations + Construction News

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia is adding another building to the city’s skyline with the construction of the New Patient Tower (NPT), continuing its mission to provide cutting-edge care for patients and families.  

The more than 20-story, 1.3 million-square-foot hospital will feature 480 state-of-the-art clinics, cutting-edge technology and advanced departments.  

A bright, three-story lobby with a grand staircase will greet guests in the main entrance. The upper floors will house hundreds of patient beds in private rooms outfitted with modern digital tools and technology. Guests can also find a centralized third-floor connector with dining options and areas for relaxation and meditation. Cardiac operation and imaging spaces will feature advanced diagnostic and treatment tools, and surgical suites are designed with flexibility in mind to ensure smooth and efficient surgeries. Outdoor spaces are full of greenery, places for shade and plenty of walking space. A new, expanded parking structure will connect to the interior of the CHOP campus.
