This multi-phase project consists on major site utility improvements, the Polytrauma and Western Blind Rehab Center, a 4-level parking garage, new campus emergency generator and chiller plants, an Ambulatory Care Center, a Recreation Center, as well as new research lab buildings. The complex phasing of the work will keep the entire campus in continuous operation, using phased demolition of buildings and systems as well as temporary systems in order to achieve this goal.
The new Rehabilitation Center will consolidate outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation programs on the Palo Alto Division campus, including Polytrauma, Blind Rehabilitation, Physical Medicine Rehab (PM&R), and Physical & Occupational Therapy. Project consists of Polytrauma Rehabilitative Center, which includes a Polytrauma Center and Center for the Blind Rehabilitation, Parking Garage for 600 cars, and a new Generator Building to replace existing generator facility.
