The existing waterproofing membrane underneath the Northwest and Northeast (Main Entry) Courts is beyond its service life and failures have been an ongoing challenge to operations, equipment, and patient care for the UW Medical Center and UW School of Medicine. The scope of this project includes demolition of the existing hardscape, excavation to expose existing waterproofing, and complete replacement of the existing waterproofing membrane, flashings, and associated systems. The project scope also includes new landscape and hardscape improvements to enhance the visitor, patient, and staff experience, and are visually pleasing when viewed from above. Developing safe, effective, and attractive solutions for a dense interface of pedestrians, cyclists, cars, and transit is a key aspect of the project. The project will require a multi-phased approach to allow for continuous 24/7 access to the UW Medical Center.
