it felt both neat and kind of terrifying to be part of that ecosystem
"Ecosystem" is a good word to describe it. The next time we see each other, I'll tell you about the time I spent more than two hours getting lost while looking for the hospital McDonald's, not realizing that it was right at street level by the museum. There are all these lovely little courtyards and atriums and giant open reception areas in the hospital, and I felt exactly like I was wandering around some sort of castle in a video game. I can't even imagine what it was like to work there, but that's so fucking cool that you did.
(UPenn recently closed that McDonald's btw, and they just bought the Murder McDonald's on 40th Street. Here's a link to a Reddit post about it because the comments are golden, so to speak.)
Also, the size of the hospital has almost doubled since 2017. I'm always amused by the students who don't know it's there, even though they must see it every day. I guess it really is so massive that it's difficult to process on a human scale. 🙃
