The Round Building at Hadassah Hospital Ein Kerem is on its way to a reimagined future. As architect Arthur Spector expressed, “The challenge is to save the icon but update it to become a completely contemporary inpatient building.”
The goal is to finish the infrastructure by the end of 2021 and to have the rest of the building nearly completed by the end of 2022. The building, with two new floors atop the existing structure, will add 250 to 300 beds to Hadassah’s inpatient capacity, bringing Hadassah’s total capacity on its two hospital campuses to about 2,000 patients.
