It’s a new gateway to health for Oklahoma children – one that will welcome hundreds of thousands of Oklahoma’s youngest patients and their families in the next year alone. More than 200 medical professionals and special guests, including young patients of OU Children’s Physicians and The Children’s Hospital at OU Medical Center, gathered to celebrate the completion of the new Children’s Atrium two weeks before it officially opened to the public.
The Atrium with its six-story, curving glass roofline is one of the most unique buildings in the entire state. Designed by Miles & Associates of Oklahoma City, its profile has been compared by some to water slides or ski slopes. On April 4, 2011, the Atrium became the new front door for both The Children’s Hospital at OU Medical Center and the OU Children’s Physicians Medical Office Building.
