Construction for the Clinical Center’s surgery, radiology and laboratory medicine (SRLM) wing continues. In the photo above, taken on Mar. 19, workers can be seen in the project’s deep excavation pit. Multilevel Parking (MLP)-14 is shown in the back left corner.

Scheduled to open in 2029, the 547,290-square-foot addition will house three departments—perioperative medicine, radiology and imaging sciences, and laboratory medicine—and National Cancer Institute and National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute laboratories and patient care areas.

During construction over the next four or five years, Center Drive from the gate at Old Georgetown Road to the front of the Northwest Child Care Center, and Convent Drive north of the MLP-9 garage entrance will be closed.
