Description
In 2006, the new East Tower of Maine Medical Center was constructed to provide a new facility for mothers and babies on the former site of the New England Rehabilitation Hospital. Abutting the Richards Wing and absorbing most of what was once Charles Street, the East Tower was designed deliberately to accommodate future expansion. The new location formed a central nexus, the logical place for a new main entrance and lobby. The Bramhall Street lobby, built in 1956 for the then-new Maine Medical Center, was renamed the South entrance and became the primary entrance for outpatient services.
