First look at Monash Medical Centre Tower Expansion Project

Initial designs for a seven-storey tower we’re building at the Monash Medical Centre in Clayton have been revealed.

Developed by architectural firm Lyons, the designs show the tower’s striking exterior. The exterior has been influenced by an ‘earth to sky’ colour palette.

The design also reveals how the tower expansion project will integrate with the busy Monash Medical Centre precinct.

Take a look.

About the Monash Medical Centre Tower Expansion Project

The Victorian Government is investing $535 million to deliver a seven-storey tower at the Monash Medical Centre in Clayton.

The tower will be built above the hospital’s newly expanded emergency department.

It will include:

  • new operating theatres with pre-operative and post-operative beds
  • expanded maternity services including birthing suites and maternity beds
  • a new intensive care unit with modern technology and facilities
  • a new Central Sterile Services Department (CSSD), giving the dedicated doctors and nurses at the Monash Medical Centre the reusable medical equipment they need to get more people off waiting lists and into surgery.

Early works are expected to start in 2025, paving the way for main works.

The project is expected to be completed in 2029.
