NYU Langone proposes new, $204 million plans for emergency center
After operating an emergency center out of an interim location at 83 Amity Street following the sale of Long Island College Hospital (LICH) to Fortis Property Group last October, NYU Langone is proposing a $204 million, four-story, 160,000-square-foot outpatient facility and ambulatory care center at 70 Atlantic Avenue.
Scheduled to open in 2018, NYU Langone-Cobble Hill will include “a permanent, free-standing emergency department (ED); a surgical suite for outpatient procedures; a broad spectrum of primary and specialty care practices; a full-service satellite of NYU Langone’s Laura and Isaac Perlmutter Cancer Center, including an infusion center and a clinical pharmacy; an on-site clinical laboratory; and comprehensive imaging services,” according to NYU Langone.
“The new ambulatory facility will expand access to NYU Langone Medical Center’s high quality healthcare services and provides a continuity of care for our Brooklyn communities,” Andrew Brotman, MD, vice dean and senior vice president of clinical affairs and strategy at NYU Langone Medical Center told this paper.
