ICRC Elevator Modernization Project

In August 2022, we initiated an elevator modernization project to improve the reliability, function, and appearance of the elevators located in the Irving Cancer Research Center. Once this multi-year, multi-phase project is complete, occupants and visitors will see major upgrades to the building’s elevator infrastructure and new interior cab designs.
