Capital Investments
Building Hope: The Children’s Hospital of
Philadelphia is in the midst of a multi-billion dollar
expansion of its Main Campus in University City
(34th Street and Civic Center Boulevard), and
plans expansions at Care Network sites in King of
Prussia, Pa., Voorhees, N.J., and Princeton, N.J.

announcing the expansion of CHOP’s
Philadelphia campus
Over the next seven years CHOP plans $1.7 billion
in capital expenditures, roughly equivalent to
adding two Comcast Centers to the region. The
impact of this spending includes tax revenues and
job creation — particularly meaningful in times of
slack construction demand, high unemployment
and distressed public finances.
This rendering shows the Ambulatory
Care Center, now under construction,
across from the Main Hospital on Civic
Center Boulevard. The 700,000-squarefoot, 12-story building is slated to open in
2015 and promises to be the most advanced
pediatric outpatient care facility in the world.
The building includes natural light-filled
reception areas and five levels of underground
parking. The design is for growth: The
structure will have the capacity to expand
to 16 floors and 875,000 square feet.

Big World:
Global Destination,
Global Partner
CHOP’s global connectivity and perspective are ever increasing. The Philadelphia region is able to claim
as its own an institution with a worldwide reputation not only for excellence, but also for a deep interest
in global engagement. This brings a halo effect to the region and makes it more attractive to outsiders,
particularly in the arenas of healthcare and science.
Global Partner
In 2011, CHOP formed a partnership with BGI (formerly
Beijing Genomics Institute) to conduct large-scale human
genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis at a state-ofthe-art center at CHOP. The partnership focuses on discovery
of genes underpinning pediatric diseases.

to store more than two million DNA
samples. Trays of coded samples (inset) are
stored in test tubes, suspended at -20 degrees
Celsius, and retrieved by a high-tech robot.
Research Leader: CHOP has more than
800,000 square feet in research space and an
annual research budget of more than $280
million. Nearly 70 percent of grants are from
federal sources, a significant importation of
funds from outside the region.

Global Model
The Beijing Aiyuhua Hospital for Women and Children will
open in 2014 — and CHOP will be providing management

in areas of patient safety, facilities planning and information
technology with the goal to become accredited by the Joint
Commission International, the gold standard for hospitals.
