PROVIDENCE CEDARS-SINAI TARZANA MEDICAL CENTER,
FRIESE FAMILY TOWER
Developer: Tarzana Medical Center, LLC
GC: McCarthy Building Companies, Inc.
Architect: Perkins&Will
The Friese Family Tower is a new five-story, 200,000 square foot patient facility located at the Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center. In October 2023, the Friese Family Tower opened its doors to patients living in and around the Valley, marking a major milestone in the healthcare provider’s expansion and renovation project.
The new patient tower comprises 150 private rooms; an expanded emergency department capable of accommodating twice as many patients; a new pharmacy equipped with a pneumatic tubing system; a pediatric unit featuring a playroom and dedicated room for adolescents; as well as specialized cardiovascular, critical care and progressive care units. A connective theme of nature imbues the space, exemplified by a central healing garden.
The project aims to evoke feelings of calm and comfort. This is achieved through cool tones of blue and green that strategically envelop the building’s interior.
