NEW YORK-PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL

The Allen Hospital - The Daniel and Jane Och Spine Hospital Roof Garden

Location: New York, NY
Size: 10,000 square feet
Project: Modernization

The Allen Hospital - The Daniel and Jane Och Spine Hospital Rooftop Garden is part of a $30,000,000 modernization and expansion at the Hospital.

The design was calibrated for human comfort and horticultural sustainability. The minimalist design emphasizes a poetic approach inspired by the Hudson River Valley landscape, juxtaposed with the roof’s industrial context and promoting a restrained, yet strong natural statement that harmonizes with the building’s architectural and mechanical elements. The garden design provides a serene place of respite for staff, patients and visitors while establishing a new urban landmark and beacon of nature floating in the city skyline.
