Completed in 2016, the Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital project represented a step into the modern era for one of the City's most critical public healthcare institutions. Fong & Chan Architects provided complete A/E services for a brand new 9-story, 284 bed acute care hospital that interfaces with the existing campus and the original hospital building. As the only Level 1 trauma center serving the City and County of San Francisco, ZSFGH redefines public medical infrastructure through thoughtful, performance-driven design. A highly efficient, patient-centered environment organizes complex hospital functions into spaces that optimize workflow, enhance care delivery, and improve staff efficiency. Patient experience is elevated through abundant glazing, expansive views in each patient room, and biophilic features, while high performance systems - including a base-isolated structural design - ensure reslience and continuous operation after major seismic events. A LEED Gold certified project, ZSFGH demonstrates a commitment to sustainability, durability and long term value for San Franciscans today and for years to come.
