Home to North Shore-LIJ’s Imaging Center at Great South Bay, this new medical complex boasts some of the world’s most sophisticated equipment, including the latest in high resolution, low-dose radiation technology for disciplines such as cardiology, neurology, orthopedics and breast imaging. To stay in context with the surrounding neighborhood, JRS drew influence from Victorian residential architecture. The look of the style can be seen in the building’s rambling roof line, large projecting bay windows, decorative trim, patterned shingles, natural granite stonework, textured surfaces and elaborate gingerbread brackets. Fully landscaped surroundings include garden beds, outdoor seating and a gazebo for meditative escapes. Parking and a main entrance are situated at the back of the property for security and privacy.

Visitors are greeted in a hotel-style lobby that includes concierge services, lounge/waiting area and access to the central elevator. The first floor provides diagnostic imaging services with specialized screens for women on the second floor. An unoccupied third floor serves as the mechanical equipment level. Pursuing LEED for interiors certification, JRS specified materials and furnishings of recycled content and renewable resources as well as products that do not compromise air quality. Public areas feature abundant day lighting and energy efficient mechanical, lighting and low-flush plumbing systems contribute to utility and energy savings. The project has been awarded LEED Silver for interior work. As a vital new link in the region’s healthcare system the Center provides cutting-edge patient care and strategic physician support in a welcoming environment, fulfilling a vision for sustainable healthcare that will be relevant for years to come.
