A growing patient population combined with a need to be adequately prepared for a natural disaster meant Tampa General Hospital was running out of room. The healthcare provider called on Gresham Smith to design an expansion on the last unbuilt area on the TGH campus. The resulting 346,000-square-foot, five-story Bayshore Pavilion provides everyday emergency services for the Davis Island Community while being an all-risks-ready care facility in the event of a disaster. The facility serves as a model for future trauma and critical care centers, placing what’s often an afterthought at the forefront of its design.
