UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland's 10-year expansion project will include rebuilding and modernizing the hospital to meet seismic regulations and improve facilities for the young patients, according to an article on the Healthcare Construction +Operations website.
A new, second outpatient center will be six stories and 89,000 square feet. The facility will adjoin the existing outpatient center with clinics for cardiology, rehabilitation, neurology and other subspecialties.
The new facility will include colorful glass panels that combine with playful detailing to establish the western gateway for the hospital campus.
Aluminum canopies along the southern face of the building shade the glass, while bouncing light into the building’s core.
