Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute is part of the elite group of National Cancer Institute (NCI) Comprehensive Cancer Centers and occupies over two million square feet, spread over 11 buildings in and around Tampa, Florida. The facility opened its doors in 1987, and a few of the Panasonic video surveillance cameras from the original installation are still in use there today.
