The Rhode Island State Health Lab serves as a cornerstone facility for public health and life sciences innovation in downtown Providence. Developed in partnership with GRE and HOK Architects, the nine-story building combines state-of-the-art laboratory infrastructure with flexible space to accommodate future biotech tenants.
A high-containment BSL-3 lab is a key program component, supporting critical public health research and diagnostics. The building includes core mechanical systems housed in a fully enclosed two-story penthouse and a dedicated ground-level equipment zone to optimize operational performance and resilience.
Designed to meet public and private research demands, the facility advances Rhode Island’s growing life sciences ecosystem. The project is designed and constructed to pursue LEED Gold certification.
