Lorry I. Lokey Stem Cell Research Building - Stanford Institutes of Medicine

Project Description

The Lorry I. Lokey Stem Cell Research Building - Stanford Institutes of Medicine building is 200,000 gross square feet (GSF), sited south of the CCSR building along Campus Drive, with a basement vivarium and three (3) above grade floors of research labs and support facilities. This building will be connected to other adjacent research facilities (RAF, CCSR, and Beckman) via a tunnel. Numerous research core facilities in addition to the vivarium are being planned. The cores include imaging, proteomics/Genomics suite, tissue bank, and stem cell FACS (fluorescent activated cell sorter) suite.

The entry plaza sits at the intersection of the Medical Center Promenade and the School of Medicine Academic Walk. The entry plaza and the garden on the south-west corner break down the scale and length of the building in order to minimize the impact on Campus Drive. The face of the building on Campus Drive is set back 50’ behind the natural landscape buffer of redwood, oak trees and understory ground cover planting typical of Campus Drive. The east/west orientation of the building allows the labs and offices to be located on the north and south faces of the building to maximize natural light and to encourage natural ventilation. Service will be accommodated through the regional loading dock/tunnel system as well as through the RAF service area.

Safety Reminders	Construction Alert Current Alert: Whiting Turner (contractor for LKSC and SIM 1) is going to be closing down the sidewalk south of the entryway to Fairchild Science- all the way around the South side of the the building to the Clark Center Sidewalk. Also, all access to the building will need to be from the North side of the building. The service elevator will still be accessible through a 4 foot wide path from the Clark Center Sidewalk. This condition will commence on August 17th, and will last for several months. Thank you for your patience! Past Alert: The walkway in the noted area will be blocked for the construction of Academic walk starting in late June 2009. The walkway in the CCSR Atrium and the walkway North of CCSR will continue to be open throughout construction. Academic walk will be open for pedestrians and bikes by the end of the Connective Elements construction in spring 2010.
