MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper – Rooftop Garden

OVERVIEW
Langan provided comprehensive planning, design and construction phase services for a 5,000-SF rooftop healing garden that will serve as a respite from the clinics and testing facilities. Custom designed planting beds will minimize rooftop loading while providing a healthy growing environment for the plants.  A thoughtfully designed drainage system will conduct water to roof drains below the paving and planting areas. The project includes a significant amount of sustainable design elements and features the use and interpretation of plants that have been used in the fight against cancer.

Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer & Data Center Plaza

OVERVIEW
Langan was retained to provide engineering, site design, and land development services to convert an existing multi-story office building into a state-of-the-art cancer care center. Landscaped walkways will provide patient access to the surrounding woodlands and will expand recreational opportunities. Lush entry gardens and courtyards will help to create a soothing and therapeutic environment. The project will include sustainable design elements such as restoring the office building minimizing site disturbance, preserving environmentally sensitive areas, adding low-impact design features such as rain gardens and selective use of pervious paving to manage stormwater from newly paved surfaces, installing LED site lighting, and landscaping with native and adapted plants. The overall site design will allow patients to enter the redesigned building at the upper and lower levels while providing improved vehicle and pedestrian circulation patterns. This project is LEED Gold certified.

St. Luke’s University Milford Hospital

OVERVIEW
Langan prepared a preliminary feasibility study to evaluate the possibility of developing a healthcare complex on one of three separate sites. We identified significant development constraints, prepared base maps and concept plans and provided a comparison table that describes the pros and cons for each development site. Once the site was selected, Langan performed a preliminary due diligence investigation. The scope of work included an updated Phase I ESA Report, a preliminary Natural Resources Assessment, which included PADEP Coordination to identify possible permitting hurdles, a Cultural Resources Assessment along with Threatened and Endangered Species Coordination and a Wetland Limits Verification and Permitting Confirmation. Our work encompassed a review of the previous Traffic Impact Study, updated trip generation estimates for the planned project and a meeting with PennDOT to review proposed improvements associated with the site.

Jefferson House

OVERVIEW
Jefferson House is an existing senior care facility with a focus on attending to the needs of residents with degenerative disease. Langan was hired by the project architect for landscape architecture + planning services. An exterior nook created by the existing building shape is reserved for a new garden designed for healing and therapeutic activities. An oval shaped walking path with strategically located benches and game tables encircles multiple amenities including a seating area with a natural stone outdoor fireplace, a boulder waterfall into a decorative pond-less gravel streambed, raised garden beds for therapeutic gardening, and a flush boardwalk observation deck leading to a meandering gravel pathway. A garden of outdoor musical instruments is located to the east and connected by the oval shaped walking path.

Lehigh Valley Health Network

OVERVIEW
Penn Regional Business Center initiated the potential development of this former residential property as a data center located in the commercial corridor of State Route 447. Lehigh Valley Health Network (formerly Pocono Medical Center) came on board to redirect the development into a medical office building (MOB). Langan handled the overall permitting and re-permitting of the project from the original data center approvals to the now constructed MOB. In particular, this site was burdened by an ordinance that prohibited increases in stormwater runoff from redevelopment of the site to the natural downstream receiving water body (Flory’s Pond) due to flooding conditions at that location. This rendered the original property commercially undevelopable. Langan provided a unique solution requiring significant permitting to overcome the issue by redirecting the stormwater to a different watershed over a half a mile from the site.
