The project will span 500,000 square feet on the city’s South Side. It will add 128 beds, which will be dedicated to patients with cancer, to the hospital’s campus, freeing other beds for patients with complex and acute care needs.
The cancer center will also address healthcare inequities for residents of the city’s South Side, who have a higher cancer burden and less access to care, UChicago said.
