This project will provide approximately 75,000 gross square
feet of new space for office, administrative, and clinical research activities. This project will improve efficiency and enhance collaboration by consolidating related research and associated staff currently scattered among several on- and off-campus locations in one building.

At approximately 75,000 square feet, this University of California, San Diego, building will be a three-story campus medical office building of tilt-up construction. The design-build team approach for this structure is to shape the design around the prioritization and balance of work, environment, and economics. We are designing this structure with consideration for the university’s investment in an office building that will support multiple-tenant occupancy, and for the university’s long-term objectives for campus building inventory requirements. The project objectives also include achieving LEED Silver Certification.
