ABOUT PROJECT
Brown Sardina developed the Master Plan, site
circulation strategies, and landscape design for a new
93-bed independent hospital and several medical office
outparcels in the coastal community of Brunswick.

The site plan and building orientation was developed

to emphasize views into the adjacent tidal marsh,
maximize energy efficiencies, and preservation of
existing woodlands. An outdoor meditation garden
incorporates native birch trees, lush understory
plantings and memorial millstone fountain. A network
of woodland paths allow visitors and patients to
experience the surrounding site’s unique character
and topography. Following the project’s completion, a
local artist, Dahlov Ipcar, designed an installation along
the nature trails, Wild Animal Alphabet Story Walk. The
installation was so successful it has since become
permanent.
