The Jockey Club One Health Tower, City University of Hong Kong
The idea of “One Health” to collectively join multiple disciplinary efforts working hand-in-hand to attain a healthier environment for people and animals will come to realization with this state-of-art multi-functional and multi-user facility, which will house Hong Kong’s first College of Veterinary Medicine and Life Sciences – a strategic collaboration with Cornell University, soaring over a world-class concert hall with 1,600 seats uniquely designed for philharmonic performances, all suspended above a multi-purpose sports arena covering 3 indoor basketball courts and a built-in 200-meter-long hanging-running-track system. As a nurturing ground for the students to explore their aspirations and potentials, this mega learning complex will in turn boost the school’s research and training capabilities especially in the area of veterinary science and addressing critical public health issues under the “One Health” paradigm.
