NYU Perlmutter Cancer Center - Radiology Oncology Renovations

B.R. Fries executed the comprehensive renovation of the Radiology Oncology Program at the renowned NYU Perlmutter Cancer Center, delivering a highly complex, multi-phase healthcare construction project designed to support state-of-the-art cancer treatment technology.


This project involved interior demolition and full build-out across three phases to accommodate advanced medical equipment, including two LINAC (Linear Accelerator) machines and one PET/CT scanner. All work was performed within an active healthcare environment, requiring strict adherence to infection-control protocols, safety standards, and coordination with hospital operations to minimize disruption to patients and staff.

Project Scope & Key Highlights:

Specialized Equipment Infrastructure

To support NYU’s cutting-edge oncology services, B.R. Fries constructed new structural, mechanical, and electrical systems, including:

  • Installation of a new rooftop chiller and exhaust fan serving the PET/CT hot lab
  • Integration of three water bypass panels required for the new LINAC machines
  • Extensive MEP upgrades tailored to sensitive imaging and treatment equipment


Interior Renovations & Clinical Spaces:

  • Patient treatment rooms and LINAC therapy suites
  • PET/CT imaging room and supporting hot lab
  • Private patient rooms
  • Specialty oncology labs
  • Nurse stations designed for efficient workflow and visibility
  • Physician and administrative offices
  • ADA-compliant restrooms

High-performance materials, durable finishes, and precision construction ensured the environment met the strict requirements for oncology care, radiation shielding, patient comfort, and infection control.
