The camera pans down towards the new Kate Page Crutcher Building of the Childrens Hospital during its dedication ceremonies. The single-story addition stands, off-center to the left, and within a courtyard of the Childrens Hospital. Green space occupies the area in front of it at center. Attendees of the dedication can be seen milling about the green space and on the building's small porches. Across the front of the new building, it reads, "KATE PAGE CRUTCHER BUILDING." Taller hospital wings rise behind and above it.
