University of Chicago Medicine has received a $75 million donation from the AbbVie Foundation to help it build its massive new cancer hospital on the city’s South Side. The money will go toward construction of UChicago Medicine’s new freestanding hospital — a 575,000-square-foot project that is expected to cost $815 million. The building will be named the AbbVie Foundation Cancer Pavilion, and is slated to open in 2027. The idea behind the facility is to give residents on the South Side, where many Black Chicagoans live, better access to cancer care, while also attracting patients from across the region and beyond. Cancer death rates on the South Side are nearly twice the national average, and it’s the leading cause of death in the neighborhoods of Calumet Heights, East Side, Kenwood, South Deering and Woodlawn, according to UChicago Medicine.
