This looks sort of dull.

This looks sort of dull. Still waiting for the Onion nomination for the new Palomar Medical center - a ghastly pimple on a wonderful hill, with no access to public transit even though they were offered a sustainable site adjacent to a $400 million sprinter line - a site which could have transformed Escondido instead of caused economic harm. The new medical center is a monument to egotistic public officials and a waaste of tax money. But I digress. This building is just so-so - at least based on these photos.

I don't get it. Orchid,

I don't get it. Orchid, really?? Looks cookie cutter to me. It also looks like something from 10 yrs ago. Or is this building 10 yrs old? If so, it doesn't meet the criteria: something built within the last 3 yrs.

I get it

I am a resident of Escondido and I appreciate the addition of brand new medical building to our area, especially one that looks as nice as this one. I checked it out inside too and thought the features are very upscale and the landscaping beautiful. Looking at one picture is not really enough to base a decision on...

Love it Love it Love it

Tome, this looks like a leftover onion from the '80's. jami

Well-Designed Building

This is a modern well-design medical office building that stands out in an aesthetically-pleasing way, especially when compared to surrounding buildings.

I'm scared to see what the

I'm scared to see what the surrounding buildings look like.

An Orchid if ever there was one

I have personally been through the Nordahl Medical Centre on several occassions. I find the project to be the finest medical office building that I have ever seen. It represents timeless architecture,state of the art mechanical,electrical ,plumbing and a very strong green/energy efficency component. The finishes are beautifull and the landscape and building amenities are very impressive. I believe this project will win an Orchid!

really????

Maybe they need to post more photos but I just don't see it from this one.
