Additional Information
This new Cancer Treatment Center was designed to complement the surrounding buildings on the Overton Brooks VA Medical Center campus with matching brick, cast stone, and aluminum window systems. The interior was designed with a balance of aesthetics, durability and timelessness in order to create a welcoming environment for veterans and their families.
The intent of this project was to create a full-service Cancer Treatment Center to serve the Shreveport area by including medical oncology, radiation oncology and hematology services under one roof. The Medical Oncology Department included (14) chemotherapy bays, an isolation room, pharmacy, blood draw, (8) exam rooms and triage. The Radiation Oncology Department included (2) linear accelerators, a computed tomography (CT) simulator, (3) exam rooms, an exam procedure room, dosimetry, and physics lab.
Spur Design issued 100% Construction Documents, but the project was canceled due to budget restraints.

Additional Information
Spur Design completed the design for the renovation of three existing elevator cars which were originally installed in the 1980’s. The scope of work includes the phased renovation of the three elevators and their associated controls, electrical components, mechanical components and equipment. Additionally, adjacent doors, jambs, and wall faces exposed to the main lobby are being upgraded to meet current VA design guidelines. The new design will provide an updated, cohesive look and feel to the lobbies at each floor. Architectural demolition work is limited in nature, with most of the demolition taking place within shafts and mechanical control room.
All areas have been designed using the latest VA standards, applicable codes, and regulations including VA design guidelines on Elevator Design (PG 18-10-Elevator Design Manual, March 1, 2018). The goal of this project is to create an environment that fosters ease of use, as well as comfort and safety for the veterans, staff, and visitors.
