Project Description

This 11-level, 320, 000 square foot Sue and Bill GrossWomen’s Pavilion in Newport Beach, California, was completed 60 days ahead of schedule and under budget. The project team’s collaboration produced the first completed California hospital with an innovative structural system combining a steel moment frame with base isolation to meet seismic regulations, create interior flexibility and support a glass curtain wall providing abundant natural light and views. The new environmentally aware community landmark includes 152 family-oriented private patient rooms, maternity rooms, a NICU, a Women’s Wellness Center, an ambulatory surgery center, outpatient services, clinical and pathology laboratories, and patient/visitor amenities.

The new Women’s Pavilion provides a much-needed new health care facility to a rapidly expanding community while enhancing Hoag Hospital’s ability to hire needed nursing and medical staff in a competitive job market. The added benefit enables the hospital to achieve its primary mission—providing the best possible patient care.
