"We collected feedback from employees as we planned this project and our staff wanted us to prioritize offering a variety of healthy food options while also supporting small and local businesses," said Emily Chase, Chief Operating Officer for the University of Chicago Medicine Center.
The CCD Food Hall was created through a collaboration with healthcare amenities company HHP and an architecture and design team comprised of Chicago-based DAAM and San Francisco-based Figure. BOWA Construction completed the build.
"We wanted the design to accommodate patients and neighbors coming to the space to recharge, as well as hospital employees looking to connect with one other," said Elyse Agnello, Founding Principal of DAAM. "The timeless, natural palette provides a calm, inviting backdrop for both."
"The special thing about this project is that it brings three truly unique restaurants under one roof," said Dan Kodner, CEO & Founder of HHP. "Hospital communities deserve the same caliber of food, design and convenience on campus as they experience off campus, and we're grateful to all our partners for helping us make that happen."
