The project, a renovation of existing lab space, created an expanded COVID-19 testing lab with  capabilities of up to 11,100 tests per day — more than double its prior COVID-19 testing capacity — giving the hospital a 24-hour turnaround time for results. 

Architecture firm Margulies Perruzzi and Columbia Construction, both Boston-based, oversaw the lab’s design and construction, respectively.
