Crews broke ground on the seven-story, 260,000-square-foot facility late last year. The parcel stretches from the intersection of Fourth Street and Hawthorne Lane and back toward Third Street. It is adjacent to Presbyterian Medical Tower.
The $165.9 million facility will house the John M. and Claudia W. Belk Heart and Vascular Institute as well as the Edward I. and Agnes B. Weisiger Cancer Center.
“Two of the major leading causes of death in North Carolina and United States are cancer and heart disease,” said Dr. Saad Ehtisham, president of Presbyterian Medical Center. “What’s remarkable about this building is its design with a healing environment in mind, holistic approach to bringing modalities between cancer and heart disease under one roof and using research as a conduit to bring the newest trials to our patients in the communities.”
