After over three years of construction, Oregon Health and Science University's state-of-the-art Knight Cancer Research Building has been completed. The 320,000-square-foot $190 million building will house 550 researchers from across the globe. Their primary goal will be to cure cancer with a focus on early detection.

The research center kicks off with $1 billion in funding under its feet, half of which came from Nike co-founder Phil Knight. In September of 2013, Knight said he'd donate $500 million to OHSU for cancer research if the university would raise $500 million as well. 22 months later, the university met his challenge.

The Oregon State Legislature provided $160 million for the building. The remaining $30 million came from the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute. Construction and design of the building was a joint venture between McCarthy/Anderson, SRG Partnership and OHSU Design and Construction. The center, located at Southwest Moody Avenue and Meade Street, is not open to patients, but meant primarily for research.
