Healing Power of Place: New Footscray Hospital
26 May @ 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM NZST
| The New Footscray Hospital is the largest piece of healthcare infrastructure in Victoria’s history. It aspires to being more than a place to attend when sick, but also a precinct for community wellness. Designed during covid lockdowns and opened in March 2026, this talk describes a design strategy which aligns community needs with urban placemaking and large scale standardisation and modularisation.
Speakers: Mark Mitchell (Principal & Health Sector Lead | Billard Leece Partnership)
