You may have noticed a new addition to the UConn Health skyline in recent days.

The new UConn Health wordmark now adorns the north façade of the new hospital tower.

It’s part of the effort to rebrand as UConn Health. The sign is visible from Farmington Avenue and will be lit at night.

The new hospital tower is the centerpiece of the reconstruction of the UConn Health campus under Bioscience Connecticut, the $864 million state investment envisioned by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy to be a catalyst for biomedical research and health care in Connecticut. It is on schedule to open next year.
