PROVIDENCE CEDARS-SINAI TARZANA MEDICAL CENTER, FRIESE FAMILY TOWER
Developer: Tarzana Medical Center, LLC
GC: McCarthy Building Companies, Inc.
Architect: Perkins&Will

The Friese Family Tower is a new five- story, 200,000 square foot patient facility located at the Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center. In October 2023, the Friese Family Tower opened its doors
to patients living in and around the San Fernando Valley, marking a major milestone in the health care provider’s Tarzana Reimaged expansion and renovation project. The new patient tower comprises 150 private rooms; an expanded emergency department capable of accommodating twice as many patients; a new pharmacy equipped with a pneumatic tubing system; a pediatric unit featuring a playroom for young patients and a dedicated room for adolescents; as well as specialized cardiovascular, critical care and progressive care units. Visitor waiting rooms are situated on each floor of the new facility, providing recliners and sleeper sofas in each patient room. A connective theme of nature imbues the space, exemplified by a central healing garden serving as a respite for both staff and patients.

The project aims to evoke feelings of calm and comfort throughout the Friese Family Tower. This is achieved through cool tones of blue and green that strategically envelop the building’s interior. These tones complement an abstracted curved petal design and art crafted by local artists, creating a welcoming healing environment for patients and visitors.
