Introduction
Howard Brown Health is renovating and modernising its Clark Street Health Center at 6500 N. Clark Street in Rogers Park, Chicago, Illinois, USA. Supported by a US$3 million capital construction grant from the State of Illinois, the project aims to expand clinical capacity and integrate primary care, behavioural health and diagnostic services.
Features
The project will renovate approximately 10,500 sq ft of the existing two-storey, 22,000 sq ft facility. Administrative and storage areas will be converted into additional patient care and clinical support spaces.
The redesigned centre will include five new primary care examination rooms, four behavioural health consultation rooms and an expanded on-site laboratory.
Two shared workspaces will support medical, behavioural health and care management teams, alongside two offices for care coordination and case management.
Clinical services will include primary care, preventive care, chronic disease management, counselling, psychiatric services, crisis support and substance use disorder treatment.
The centre will also improve access to same-day behavioural health consultations and diagnostic testing.
Building improvements will include upgraded heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, roof repairs, exterior masonry work and redesigned reception, waiting and registration areas.
Following completion, the centre is expected to serve more than 10,000 patients annually, an increase of approximately 2,400. Construction is expected to begin in spring 2027.
