Kishwaukee Hospital — DeKalb, IL

Northwestern Medicine‘s Kishwaukee Hospital in DeKalb, Illinois has been providing high-quality medical care to the north-central region of the state since 1975. Responding to steady growth in the area, the campus has added several modern buildings in the past decade that we’ve been delighted to work on!

In 2010, we helped the team at BSA LifeStructures pick out a gorgeous stone veneer for the facility’s new cancer center. Known as “Hudson Ledgestone,” this offering from NSVI is a popular mix of rustic, variously-sized stones in a mica-flecked color palette of warm greys, buffs, and browns.

When an accompanying health & wellness center was built nearby in 2017, we provided the same material for a design by Plunkett Raysich Architects The shared masonry visually harmonizes the two structures and compliments the sprawling, naturalistic landscaping. With over 16 acres of publicly-accessible fitness and recreation facilities, this is one we encourage you to check out the next time you’re in the area!
