戈德伯格的方法是让建筑的内部要求来定义外部形式，这就产生了他的医院特有的立柱和塔形。较低的楼层包括外科套房、研究实验室、餐饮设施和维修区。由于未来医疗技术的发展可能需要空间发生巨大的变化，戈德伯格选择了直线凸起的形式，这提供了最大的灵活性。另一方面，由于医院的角色(照顾和照顾病人)不大可能改变，戈德伯格认为大楼的塔楼不需要灵活。在这里，戈德伯格受到人类学家的启发，比如爱德华·T·霍尔(EdwardT Hall)，他在不同的空间方向上发展着人类互动的理论。

Goldberg's approach was to let the interior requirements of the building define the exterior form, which gave rise to the peculiar plinth-and-tower form of his hospitals. The lower floors contained surgical suites, research laboratories, dining facilities and maintenance areas. Because future developments in medical technology may require spaces to be changed dramatically, Goldberg chose the form of a rectilinear plinth, which provides the greatest possible flexibility. On the other hand, since the role of a hospital (accommodating and caring for patients) was unlikely to change, Goldberg felt the building's tower need not be flexible. Here, Goldberg was inspired by anthropologists such as Edward T Hall, who were developing theories of human interaction in different spatial orientations.

这座塔的“四叶三叶草”计划把每一层都分成了四个小社区，加强了邻近居民之间的社会联系。这种径向安排在每层楼周围创造了大量纵横交错的路线，这意味着与普通医院相比，与沿着走廊布置房间的典型医院相比，偶发社交的可能性更大。它还将所有病人安置在距离中心位置的护士站大致相等的位置，从而提供高效的护理服务。

The 'four leaf clover' plan of this tower splits each floor into four tiny communities, fostering greater social ties between the neighboring occupants. The radial arrangement creates a large number of criss-crossing routes around each floor, meaning there is more chance for incidental social encounters than in a typical hospital with rooms arranged along a corridor. It also places all patients roughly equidistant from the centrally-located nurses' station, allowing for efficient care.

采用由该内部布局确定的外部形状，并且需要外部负载承载壁，该时间的大多数结构解决方案将具有支撑该结构的所需的柱。然而，通过采用航空工业所开发的软件的激进方法（在FrankGehry提出这一策略之前约20年），有可能将这些结构壁从建筑物的中心核心上悬臂。这是一种结构解决方案，根据戈德伯格的儿子杰弗里·戈德伯格（GeoffreyGoldberg），在世界任何地方都找不到。

With the exterior form determined by this interior layout, and requiring external load bearing walls, most structural solutions of the time would have required columns supporting the structure. However, by taking the radical approach of employing software developed by the aeronautics industry (some 20 years before Frank Gehry made this tactic famous), it was possible to cantilever these structural walls from the central core of the building. This is a structural solution which, according to Goldberg's son Geoffrey Goldberg, is not found anywhere else in the world.

它的重点是人际关系和建筑社区，它的醒目的具体形式，以及它在当时可用的最现代的结构解决方案，婚前妇女的医院（以及BertrandGoldberg的整个工作）汇集了来自70年代初的一系列建筑流，触及了布鲁塔主义，建筑师的人本主义，如AldoVanEyck，以及由日本建筑师（如KenzoTange和熏天彦）主导的新陈代谢列表运动。

With its focus on human relationships and building community, its striking concrete form, and its use of the most modern structural solution available at the time, the Prentice Women's Hospital (as well as Bertrand Goldberg's work as a whole) brings together a number of streams of architecture from the early 70s, touching on Brutalism, the humanism of architects such as Aldo Van Eyck, and the Metabolist movement dominated by Japanese architects such as Kenzo Tange and Fumihiko Maki.

可悲的是，这座建筑的重要性及其独特的建筑影响组合并不足以保证它在芝加哥不断变化的街道上的地位。尽管数十名建筑师做出了努力，甚至珍妮·刚(Jeanne Gang)和“纽约时报”(New York Times)的迈克尔·金梅尔曼(Michael Kimmelman)也提出了最后一项建议，但西北大学的业主们在2013年夏天拆除了这座建筑，声称该建筑无法满足他们为该遗址规划的尖端生物医学研究设施的需求。

Sadly, the importance of this building and its singular combination of architectural influences was not enough to guarantee its place in the ever-changing streets of Chicago. Despite efforts of dozens of architects, and even a last-ditch proposal from Jeanne Gang and The New York Times' Michael Kimmelman, the owners, Northwestern University, demolished the building in the summer of 2013, claiming the building could not meet the needs for a cutting-edge biomedical research facility they have planned for the site.
