Originally built in 1926, Encompass Health Lakeshore Rehabilitation Hospital started out as a tuberculosis sanatorium designed to handle the rising number of TB cases in the city. With the hospital’s rich history of providing therapeutic care for individuals with physical disabilities very much in mind, Lakeshore Foundation requested that their new inpatient bed tower addition seamlessly integrate with the circa 1920s building. Gresham Smith’s design delivers on the client’s vision by providing a three-story addition that aesthetically complements the existing historic building while serving as a new face for the campus and a rebranding of Encompass Health.
