Lane Community College, Health Professions Building

Fortis worked as CM/GC alongside architects Mahlum and Robertson Sherwood to deliver the $26M Health Professions Building for Lane Community College. The new three-story, ground-up building houses the Dental Hygienist, Dental Assistant, Medical Assistant and Emergency Medical Services programs. Complementing these programs, the project includes a dental hygiene clinic, EMT training facility, ambulance bay, classrooms, administrative space, and a 100+ seat classroom for lectures and community events.

As the first major project under LCC’s 2020 Master Plan, the Health Professions Building brings the LCC Dental Clinic back to the main campus. The facility fosters a sense of community by enhancing the circulation and connection to the center of campus. Site improvements included a new pedestrian bridge and plazas that connect Bristow Square with the athletic fields.
