The Harbor-UCLA Medical Center is a 24-hour
emergency and acute care teaching hospital that
occupies a 78 acre site consisting of a main hospital and
World War II era barracks that have been reproposed
as research laboratories and clinics. The master plan
will consolidate outpatient and laboratory facilities
to create a cohesive campus-like setting where
collaboration between doctors, researchers, and the
general public will continue the hospitals reputation
as a vital public service within the community of South
Los Angeles. The goal of the master plan is to establish
guidelines that will guide future development of open
space throughout the campus in a manner that will
collectively unify and reinforce the hospitals identity.
