Heritage Hall is the new home for the Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine. The facility provides space for medical education, clinical assessment and training, student support spaces, administrative space, and a Learning Resource Center (including a medical library).

A third of the building’s space is dedicated to hands-on practice areas, including a clinical training and assessment center, an osteopathic manipulative medicine lab, and a gross anatomy lab. A key feature of the project, the 8,500 SF gross anatomy lab space consists of a 3,565 SF lab and support spaces including embalming, cold storage, showers, and changing areas. The facility features a dramatic atrium with a monumental staircase, state-of-the-art classrooms with custom Audio/Visual technology, a fitness center, and a café.

Heritage Hall is one of the first medical education facilities in the country to achieve WELL Silver certification. The building promotes “active design” by encouraging physical activity within the building with the intent of maintaining student health and academic success.

In addition to IC’s CMR services, our Special Projects Group was responsible for furnishing and installing the modular glass wall systems.
