As the first LEED® Gold Certified Healthcare project (v3) in the State of Wisconsin, the UW Health East Madison Hospital is home to 14 operating rooms, a cardiology clinic, a Universal Care Center, and multiple dedicated spaces to physical therapy and occupational therapy.
Since completing UW Health’s original construction in 1970, Findorff has worked on hundreds of UW Health projects. These include the construction and renovation of the emergency department, MRI replacements, and hybrid operating rooms. More unique facilities include Angio suites, a heliport, rooftop healing gardens, and radiology renovations.
Other projects with UW Health include:
- American Family Children’s Hospital
- UW Health East Madison Hospital
- UW Health Rehabilitation Clinic
Findorff provided construction services for this religious gathering space and lecture hall on East Campus Mall of the UW-Madison campus. The facility was renovated from an existing cafeteria on the second floor of University Square into a multi-use space for student use. This is now a large venue capable of hosting anything from a concert to a retreat for a church youth group.
University Square, located in the heart of the University of Wisconsin – Madison campus, includes 350 residential units, a sustainable green roof, and 420 underground parking stalls. The base of the building features retail space, and the upper levels include the Lucky Apartments for student housing and office space for the University.
Innovation One – Located within University Research Park, Exact Sciences’ corporate headquarters, named Innovation One, unites team members and departments previously dispersed across multiple sites in the Madison area. The building received a LEED® Silver Certification and complements Exact Sciences’ laboratory campus and existing clinical lab. The construction process incorporated augmented reality components and full BIM coordination.
Element Labs Building – This five-story, multi-tenant commercial lab and office building was developed for clients in need of laboratory, restaurant, and amenity space. It includes a main lobby entrance, 4,000 square feet of restaurant shell space, and two levels of underground parking.
A six-story, 146,000-square-foot facility was constructed, including an auditorium, classrooms, extensive lab spaces, offices, and renovations to historical facilities. This project consisted of hazardous materials abatement, demolition, selective removal, renovation, and new construction within an existing complex.
Findorff’s relationship with the University of Wisconsin–Madison spans more than a century, starting with our very first contract for carpentry work at the UW-Madison Armory and Gymnasium, known today as the “Red Gym.” We have since completed hundreds of projects for the school, including:
- Biochemistry Sciences Complex

- Gordon Dining & Event Center
- Health Sciences Learning Center
- Kohl Center
- La Bahn Arena
- Signe Skott Cooper Hall
- University Square
- UW Hillel Foundation
- Waisman Center

Findorff has completed numerous fast-tracked, multi-phased projects in occupied areas of multiple UnityPoint Health – Meriter facilities.
Most significantly, Findorff has completed the following:
- Atrium expansions
- Child and adolescent psychiatry hospital expansion
- Maternal Services renovation
- Oncology Department remodel
- Operating room renovations
- Pediatric Emergency Department improvements
Awarded LEED Gold Certification, the TruStage Foundation Headquarters office building spans five floors, providing meeting and recreational space, a cafeteria with a kitchen, and a 350-seat auditorium. At 72 points, the Headquarters has now achieved the highest point total for any LEED v4 New Construction project in the state of Wisconsin. This project required demolition of an existing building and parking structure, replaced with below-grade parking, extensive landscaping, and walking paths.
Findorff has had the opportunity to construct Summit Credit Union’s corporate office and multiple retail locations throughout Wisconsin. The facilities feature large lobbies, drive-through teller areas, and member service counters. Summit’s Corporate Office received LEED® Silver certification.
