The New York City Animal Medical Center - $70 Million Expansion Project

McCabe Environmental Services is pleased to announce that we have been chosen as the lead environmental consulting and monitoring firm for the major renovation and expansion project of one of most prestigious and top-rated animal hospitals in the world. The 110-year-old nonprofit animal hospital, located on the East Side of Manhattan, will be getting new emergency and intensive care units, more space for research, and a grassy new balcony dog run. In addition to the renovations, the hospital will be adding approximately 11,000 square feet, which will include additional operating rooms and conference space for postgraduate veterinary training. The Gift of Love Campaign was responsible for raising more than half of all funds necessary to complete this project, which is expected early 2024.

History of the Animal Medical Center

In 1910, the New York Women's League for Animals began to raise the funds for a more permanent facility with better staff and equipment to treat more animals. The new facility opened in 1914 just down the street from the original clinic, and by 1920, the Animal Medical Center (AMC) was treating over 9000 patients annually. Over the next 80 years AMC continued to grow its reputation as a leader in veterinary care by utilizing the latest medical technology, offering more specialized services and programs, and performing cutting-edge procedures. Today, AMC is the largest non-profit animal hospital in the world, treating 54,000 patients a year. A leader in compassionate care, research, and education, AMC currently runs the most prestigious post-graduate training program in veterinary medicine. With more than 100 doctors across 20 specialties, AMC is poised to lead the way in veterinary care for the next 100 years!
