The team, led by Clark Construction, includes SmithGroup as the lead architect and SKA and Ratcliff as associate architects. The $430.8 million contract includes construction of replacement facilities that will be completed in three phases over seven years, making it the largest healthcare investment in the history of Alameda County.
The project’s first phase, to be completed by 2012, includes the construction of a 78,000 square feet medical office building. This three-story facility will be built over a 176-space parking structure and will include connectors to the new hospital. Phase two is the construction of a nine-story, 169-bed acute care tower. Phase two is expected to be complete in 2016.
The Highland Hospital project will be designed to earn a minimum LEED Silver certification.
