To meet the fast-track schedule, the structure is comprised of over 59 modules that were installed in only 6 days. In fact, modular construction by Axis Construction allowed the clinic to open almost 9 months sooner than would have been possible with conventional, site-built construction. The facility is a two (2) story, stand-alone building that is approximately 20,000 SF, Type II (steel frame – noncombustible) equipped with a fully automatic fire sprinkler system. It’s designed in accordance with NYC-HHC’s program requirements as well as all NYC Building Codes and Article 28 Diagnostic and Treatment requirements. The building has also achieved a LEED Silver rating. The building is Staten Island’s newest diagnostic and treatment center and it is anticipated to handle over 40,000 patient visits annually by 2020.
