The Binney Building for Boston Children’s Hospital is a ten-story urban infill building that contains much needed expansion space for the ED, Imaging, Same Day Surgery, Neurology, Pharmacy and four floors of new inpatient beds in alignment with the existing hospital. The building has prominent street frontages along Binney Street and the main drop-off for Boston Children’s Hospital.

The Binney Street façade is a dramatic faceted butt-glazed curtainwall that greatly simplifies the complex urban texture that exists on Binney Street, while placing emphasis on a two-story pedestrian arcade along Binney Street that defines the ambulance entrance on one end and incorporates a pocket park on the other end.
