Sacramento-based healthcare giant Sutter Health has unveiled updated plans for the Emeryville Medical Center at Horton and 53rd streets that show the hospital at the center of the campus rising 17 stories and spanning 780,000 square feet. If built as designed, it would surpass the 318-foot Pacific Park Plaza and become the tallest structure in Emeryville, the San Francisco Business Times reported.
Sutter also boosted the total bed capacity for the hospital to 325, up from 200. It plans to renovate the campus’ existing buildings, 5555 Hollis St. and 5300 Chiron Way, to house medical office and ambulatory care facilities. It also detailed constructing a roughly 55,000-square-foot “future project” building.
A Sutter Health spokesperson told the Business Times that it began sharing more information about the $1-billion project through community meetings, including a May 18 gathering intended to introduce the proposal and vision and get feedback from the community.
