Scope Of Work
Biomedical Research Building & Parking Garage were built as part of the unique, mixed-use Innovista research and innovation district.
As part of the University of South Carolina’s Innovista Plan to co-locate private and public research, Gilbane constructed the biomedical research laboratory and parking garage. The 110,000-square-foot facility consist of biomedical wet and dry labs, associated cancer research space, office space and vivarium. The eight-story, precast parking garage consists of 1,400 spaces. The second floor is dedicated to office and research support functions, and can be reconfigured to adapt to different research needs.
