HKS Architects, Inc., Los Angeles, was the project
architect-of-record, while HDR Architecture, Inc., San Diego, served as the
architectural designer for the new hospital. Young+Co., Inc. of San Diego, HDR
Architects and HKS Architects collaborated on the interior design.
Dignitaries with the Naval Facilities Engineering Command
(NAVFAC) Southwest, the construction team and hospital commemorated the
extraordinary feat during an official ceremony held October 17th to pass the
facility key from the Clark/McCarthy JV to NAVFAC to the Navy Medicine.
Representatives of all parties were on hand to celebrate the occasion.
"The replacement hospital is a facility 'catch-up' for
the progress of modern medicine, since the last facility was built in the early
1970s,” said Capt. Mark A. Kobelja, commanding officer of the Naval
Hospital Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton.
“The new facility utilizes evidence-based design to enhance
healing for patients, as well as
efficient and effective design to conserve water and energy, protect from earthquakes
and optimize the work environment for staff.
"Designed as a like-for-like replacement of existing capabilities, the
new facility will greatly enhance those capabilities with the newest facility
and equipment technologies.
" Add in the ocean view, large windows, greenery and
pleasing finishes and textures throughout, and it's little wonder our staff and
patients are ready to move in.”
