The Charlotte R. Bloomberg Children's Center is named in honor of Bloomberg's late mother. It has 205 rooms and 10 surgical suites for pediatric patients, plus family sleeping accommodations, kitchen and laundry facilities, and a playroom with a basketball court and TV studio, not to mention the Monet-inspired facade.
