The Old Town Recovery Center is a new half-block development for Central City Concern. Conceived to facilitate cutting-edge medical practice thinking and quality patient care, the design provides a healing therapeutic environment, following the philosophy that reducing patient stress can improve patient outcomes. 

The first phase is a three-story health clinic that provides integrated primary health and behavioral health care. Clinic programs focus on community-based, compassionate, safe and dignified care for low-income clients with mental illness or addiction challenges. The project connects to and expands the “Old Town Clinic”, a primary health clinic in the adjacent Richard L Harris Building. The second phase of the project includes a future high-rise housing development above the clinic.
