Highlighted by the morning sun, the hospital has become prominent in the view as the medical building is being built across Van Ness Avenue.

View taken 01/20/2018. Note the Salesforce tower in the distance. Having seen the below ground area I can appreciate how much more of this building is hidden!

I like the way the very large medical office building respects its Polk Street neighbor, the historic Pierce Arrow car dealership.

But, yes, it's architecture is nice and worth preserving and respecting. |
Any news on the redevelopment of the California Street campus of CPMC?
|
They are now saying this building will open in April 2019. It has appeared essentially complete on the exterior for some time. They have even planted the street trees around it (in spite of the fact that the Van Ness BRT project has the street itself all torn up).
Its sibling, the replacement for St. Luke's Hospital in the Mission, opens this week. |

I suppose by some miracle they might do the remaining work in the next month or so but that would be very unlike the kind of progress they've been making before now. They told the management of my building it would take 3 weeks to do the sidewalks on our one block. |

St. Luke’s has also undergone a name change to Sutter Health CPMC Mission Bernal Campus. https://www.sutterhealth.org/for-pat...al-campus-cpmc |
It took many months/ years for the new Sutter medical center in Sacramento to officially open even though the exterior was completed. Hospitals are much more complex than condos.

^^They have so far poured more of the curb lanes (lanes of the street closest to the curb) than of the actual sidewalk. I believe that's the case between McAllister and Golden Gate. From Golden Gate to Turk, they have poured the actual sidewalk, except on the corners, and the curb lanes. Then from Turk to Eddy again the curb lanes only.

speaking of sidewalks, here's what the one in front of the med center will look like

Officially opening tomorrow. Unofficially open now. So I guess the thread can go where completed projects go. No?

In terms of the "Mondrian-inspired windows"; I always felt they were more of a modernist's take on stained glass, vis a vis Cathedral Hill. |
New pics please if someone is around the area!

Elevator Lobby 2nd floor
