Innovative Building Provides Collaborative Space for Multiple Healthcare Professions

The new Allied Health Building for Hillsborough Community College Mabry Campus, located in Tampa, Florida, was recently completed. The project team includes Gilbane Building Company and Harvard Jolly Architects.

This new 60,000-square-foot, three-story building houses Hillsborough Community College’s nursing, emergency medical services, medical lab technician and respiratory care therapy programs. The building was designed and equipped to include a simulated hospital so that multiple programs communicate together to replicate conditions found in real-life situations. The scope of work consisted of new classrooms, medical laboratory technology, computer information system and physical therapy spaces, as well as administrative offices, conference rooms, nursing stations, simulated hands-on laboratories and lecture hall.

In addition to the New Allied Health Building, a central energy plant expansion and infrastructure upgrades were completed. HCC will also enjoy an updated entrance for the campus, as well as generous parking enhancements.
