Project Name

Family Tree Clinic

Description

For more than half a century, Minneapolis’ Family Tree Clinic has provided underserved populations in the Twin Cities with reproductive and sexual health services. But in recent years, the clinic’s clients, largely BIPOC, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those living below the poverty line, have faced long waiting lists and barriers to cutting-edge medical care. This new clinic, just 1.2 miles from downtown Minneapolis and connected to bike shares, three mass transit lines, and two major interstates, ensures its patients that they matter, are seen, and will be cared for.

"]]],[1,"p",[[0,[],0,"The clinic engaged the design team in 2017\nwhen it was operating out of an old schoolhouse that was disconnected from the\ncore of the Twin Cities.

The resulting discovery\nphase and visioning session uncovered the needs of patients and staff,\nestablishing the project goals and drivers before design began. "]]],[1,"p",[[0,[],0,"During the earlier phases of the process, the\nteam considered several potential sites, which included retrofitting existing\nbuildings; major renovations to the clinic\u2019s existing building; and new\nconstruction. The pre-occupancy evaluation revealed a critical need for the\nclinic to be in a location more rooted in the LGBTQ+ community, and the new\nbuilding\u2019s site on Nicollet Avenue meets that goal. "]]],[1,"p",[[0,[],0,"From its position on a busy retail corridor,\nthe new building is a welcoming, safe, and connected respite for patients and\nmembers of the LBGTQ+ community. Its simple brick volume reflects the scale and\nmaterial patterns of the surrounding environment, and the team\u2019s material\nchoice gives the building a sense of permanence in the community.

The clinic is\nlocated at the rear of the second floor to provide privacy, and its waiting\nroom offers views of the thoroughfare below.
