- Physicians, staff and community members look over a model of the new Center for Cancer Treatment and Prevention/Ambulatory Care Pavilion during groundbreaking ceremonies on Sept. 4. The 218,000-sq.-ft. building on Blake Wilbur Drive will bring together Stanford's 80 cancer specialists. The total cost of the project is $162 million, a major portion of which will come from private philanthropy. The building is scheduled for completion in the summer of 2003. While roughly 60 percent of the building will be dedicated to cancer programs, the remaining 40 percent will be used for surgical outpatient services, including a suite of operating rooms specially equipped for such procedures as eye surgeries, repair of sports injuries and other orthopedic problems, gynecologic surgeries and endoscopic procedures.
