UCSF Medical Center at Mission Bay celebrated a major milestone today with the placement of a 1,600-pound beam – painted white and decorated with colorful autographs of construction workers, donors and supporters, along with art created by hospitalized children and adults – atop the new hospital complex, signifying the end of the structural steel phase of San Francisco’s first new hospital in decades.
The “Topping Out” Celebration, a tradition in building construction, recognized the hundreds of construction crew members, ironworkers and others who have helped erect the skeleton of the 878,000-gross-square-foot buildings, in addition to the entire team behind the design and construction of the new medical center.
