Old meets new at the anatomy wing addition and existing Hamilton Hall. Vapor barrier has been installed, and limestone and brick are starting at the corner foundations.
Limestone and brick on the new construction will match the character of existing historic Hamilton Hall.
The new anatomy wing rises as brickwork has started. The portion of Starling-Loving known as the A-wing is being prepared for demolition, to provide space for an all new state of the art classroom building.
The anatomy stair tower will provide great views onto the new exterior quad, Postle Hall and the Wexner Medical Center.
An interior view of a second floor anatomy lab, installation of mechanical systems, electrical conduit and plumbing piping continue.

Looking south from inside a future anatomy lab, rough-in work continues for mechanical, electrical and plumbing.
Looking south, the anatomy wing will will house undergraduate and graduate teaching labs.
The Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Center includes a 120,000-square-foot renovation of Hamilton Hall and construction of a new 100,000-square-foot building featuring flexible facilities to serve multiple disciplines.
Air handling units were recently set in the penthouse of the new Anatomy wing.
Roofing work is 95% complete on the anatomy wing of the Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Center, and brick installation continues through mid-summer. The project, which began in November 2019, includes the renovation of the 120,000-square-foot Hamilton Hall and construction of a new 100,000-square-foot building that, combined, will create a collaborative campus for interprofessional education throughout the Health Sciences. Current construction activities include:
- Interior framing is ongoing on floors one to three.
- Mechanical systems, electrical conduit, and plumbing piping are being installed on the lower floors.
- The air handling units recently were set in the penthouse of the new Anatomy wing.
- Underground site utility work is ongoing.
Beginning June 2021 and continuing through September 2021, portions of Starling Loving and Fry bridge will be demolished to allow for the new 100,000-square-foot building along 10th Ave.
The Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Center facility opening dates are scheduled for three phases:
- Anatomy Wing Phase – January 2022
- Classroom Wing Phase – June 2023
- Hamilton Renovation Phase – January 2024
