Mill City Clinic is the epitome of healthcare redefined-from its location to its design to its aesthetics. The clinic is located in Minneapolis' historic mill district in the new Zenith Condominium building, an aspirational building that includes 65 condo units, street level retail and the aloft hotel. The clinic, which also sits across the street from the new Guthrie Theatre, eloquently integrates art and healing to create an inspirational and inviting healthcare environment designed to promote positive patient outcomes. The clinic's design incorporates a soft contemporary touch that leverages the unique characteristics of the building and the location. Tall verticals provide space for glass clearstories and light coves that allow natural light to permeate exam rooms; draperies mimic stage curtains used in performance venues to provide waiting room privacy while giving passers-by a glimpse inside; and original artwork graces the walls of the reception space to create a gallery experience for patients. In its own right, Mill City Clinic embodies the art of healing.
