$180M renovation of LES healthcare center begins

City and public hospital officials broke ground today on the $180-million renovation and expansion of the Lower East Side’s Gouverneur Healthcare Services, at 227 Madison Street at Clinton Street. RMJM Hillier is the architect on the project, which includes a 316,000-square-foot renovation and 108,000-square-foot addition to the community healthcare facility. A new atrium will be built for the five-story ambulatory care wellness building, and the long-term care services center, called the Residence at Gouverneur Court, will be redesigned and include an additional 85 nursing home beds.
