Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Jimmy Fund Clinic - Boston, MA

Bond Brothers have begun work on a comprehensive renovation of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Jimmy Fund Clinic, located in the Longwood Medical area. The two-year renovation and expansion project will renew 19,500 s/f of clinic space serving pediatric cancer patients, increasing its capacity by 40%.
The clinic's multi-phased renovations will result in improvements that will enhance pediatric cancer care for patients and families. Infusion and clinical areas will be expanded and improved to optimize flow and patient care. The waiting room will also be expanded and reconfigured to include play, quiet, and teen areas. Space adjacent to the clinic will remain occupied during construction, creating the need for strict infection control procedures.
Renovations to the Jimmy Fund Clinic are currently underway, with completion of the project's last phase scheduled for December 2014. The project has been designed by Isgenuity to achieve USGBC's LEED Silver Certification.

Since 1907, Bond has been the construction management firm for some of the New England's most high-profile vertical and horizontal construction projects. With two distinct groups, operating as construction managers for academic and healthcare clients, and self-performing general contractors for the power and energy industry.
