The Sandra R. Berman Pavilion is under construction and making progress daily. This new home for cancer care at GBMC HealthCare will open in early 2025. Patients of the Sandra and Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute do not have to wait that long to benefit from this new structure, though. Early in 2024, a four-story garage beneath the new Sandra R. Berman Pavilion will open, making getting to treatment a bit easier for patients – particularly those receiving radiation therapy.


At the same time crews are busy finishing the garage, they are also creating a new connection to GBMC’s Sheila K. Riggs Radiation Oncology Center. Patients and those caring for them can park in the new garage, take a few steps through the new corridor and arrive in the department.

Easing access to this vital program has long been a goal of GBMC leadership. When donors Sandra and Malcolm Berman made their transformational gift to kick off the capital campaign to build a new home for cancer care, they also advocated for improving access to radiation oncology. Thanks to the Bermans’ generosity and that of others who have followed their example, this need will soon be met.

The garage will be linked to GBMC’s new main entrance, the Louis and Phyllis Friedman Building, the first initiative of The Promise Project. The new inpatient facility opened to patients in November 2023. Both buildings were designed by teams including those who will receive treatment and those who will work in the building – from former patients and current volunteers to environmental services staff and clinicians. Every group who will use the building is represented in the final design.

Already, the construction project offers an idea of the spectacular views that will be available from inside the building. When it opens, the Sandra R. Berman Pavilion will complete The Promise Project at GBMC.

The Sandra R. Berman Pavilion illustrates in brick, mortar and glass GBMC's dedication and commitment to providing every patient, every time with the care we would want for our own loved ones.
