As you’ll read in this month’s cover story, New Brunswick is marking its latest and perhaps most monumental investment in health care with the opening of the 12-story, 520,000-square-foot Jack & Sheryl Morris Cancer Center. Executives with RWJBarnabas Health, the Rutgers Cancer Institute and other key stakeholders unveiled the facility in mid-May, hailing the arrival of New Jersey’s first freestanding cancer hospital and one of only 13 in the country, part of a $1 billion project that has brought top-tier patient care and cutting-edge research labs under one roof.
Why New Brunswick’s new cancer hospital is personal for Morris family — and so many others
Fittingly so, it was a major construction project that helped pique Jack Morris’ interest when Harvey Holzberg, CEO of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, asked him to join the board of the New Brunswick institution. That was a quarter-century ago, as the planned Bristol-Myers Squibb Children’s Hospital was taking shape just west of RWJ’s main campus.
