About the building: Both the Master Plan as well as the renovations and additions to the Columbus Regional Hospital were designed by Robert A. M. Stern Architect. The entry to the hospital and its public spaces are designed at the level of a "hotel".

of the brick masonry on the existing part of the hospital needed to be
replaced. Here we can see the specialized steel scaffolding that is erected,
literally hung from the building structure, to facilitate work on the
project.
