This new high-rise ambulatory care center is tailored to the concept of a “one-stop shop” for clinical services. Program areas include 150 physician/healthcare provider offices, outpatient surgery, special procedures areas, cancer center, diagnostic imaging, laboratory, pharmacy, cafeteria, three-story entrance lobby and atrium, and five-story underground parking garage. Our design includes an innovative variable-air-volume zone-control system providing individual temperature control in every room. The building’s energy usage is 27% percent below California’s 1998 Title-24 energy standard, with the air handling system alone at 53% below Title-24.
