We can move to under construction as soon as foundation work on the actual building begins, but not for adjacent sites.

Demolition Underway For UC Parnassus Heights Hospital And Research Building

BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:30 AM ON JANUARY 1, 2024

Demolition and excavation work is underway for two major projects in the UCSF Parnassus Heights campus in San Francisco. Crews finished removing the seven-story UC Hall, and only a corner of the four-story ​​Mental Health Services building remains as of our visit. The sites are expected to be transformed into a research building and hospital, with both scheduled to finish by 2028 and 2030, respectively.

The two developments are part of the UC Parnassus Heights campus expansion plan. The third project includes improvements to the two Health Science Instruction and Research towers.

...

The New Hospital Parnassus Heights will rise at 401 Parnassus Avenue next to the existing Hospital at 505 Parnassus Avenue. The eye-catching 15-story tower is designed by Herzog & de Meuron, with HDR as the architect of record. The terracotta-clad building will feature an asymmetrical tripart layout. The podium will be wrapped with fluted panels and horizontal window bands. The next four curtain-wall-clad floors will be setback from the podium, making way for a landscaped open space with ivy climbing up the thin four-story columns. Crowning the hospital with be six levels with stepped terraces facing east and west.

The 1.5 million square foot structure will increase the campus’s bed capacity to 682 beds, create 71 emergency department bays, add a new ICU facility, and produce rooms for general and specialized patient care.

Agreed. It will be the flagship, both medically and architecturally, of all the hospitals in California.

Walked down Stanyan today and saw UCSF in the distance, spent like 10 minutes imagining it among the cluster of UCSF buildings. Considering Hayes Point is on hold, Mission Rock is almost done, and no other huge projects are breaking ground anytime soon, this one is getting me really excited! Gonna make a great addition to the cityscape.
