The $45.4 million faculty center will include 13 floors for physicians’ offices and support functions as well as a food court, copy center, mail services, and a sky bridge that connects the building to the Rotary House. An existing bridge links Rotary House to M.D. Anderson’s clinic and hospital buildings.

Construction is scheduled to begin in the spring of 1999, with completion expected by the fall of 2000.
