The new entry approach responded to the hospital’s need to relocate the patient entrance and drop-off on a challenging and constrained urban campus. A master site plan was developed to accom­modate both emergency and public vehicular circulation, and to reconfigure and restripe the existing parking lots. The landscape master plan defined pedestrian routes, paving, planting, irrigation, and landscape accessories. A land­scaped courtyard was created to accommodate cafeteria seating and meditation, and specimen plants were relocated to fit seamlessly into the new design.
