| ST. MARY'S DULUTH MEDICAL CENTER
CANCER HOSPITAL
Duluth, MN
Architectural Design: HKS Dallas
Landscape Design: Derek Young & Roger Grothe
Located in Duluth, MN, this new cancer center is part of St. Mary's Medical
Center consortium of hospitals, clinics, and health care centers. It has
recently been awarded a gold medal by the US Green Building Council for
its Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design.
The site enjoys superb views of Lake Superior and close adjacency to
the medical complex itself. Its program calls for full oncological services,
a woman's center, radiology and radiation facilities, pediatrics, and
surgery. The center will also boast of a restaurant and wellness garden
with outstanding views.
Our contributions focused on topographical analyses, programmatic placement,
and internal energy flow. Because the site happens to be compromised by
geopathic stresses, cures were also effected to balance earth energies.
In addition, contributions were also made to the design of the wellness
garden.
