Project of the Year

Sharp Chula Vista Ocean View Tower

Meeting the growing need of a California border community, the Hensel Phelps/ SmithGroup team designed and constructed this impressive seven-story, inpatient hospital tower ahead of schedule and under budget. Within the 106-bed tower, there is a grand two-story lobby on the ground floor, with separate surgery and ICU waiting rooms—placed adjacent to courtyards and healing gardens. Three floors make up the bulk of the tower with patient rooms flanking both the eastern and western sides for views with natural lighting. The central core of the facility houses physician and nursing functions, such as call stations, for quick and effective responses. To further elevate the experience, the hospital’s “redefined dining” is located on the top floor, providing 270-degree views of the ocean and chaparral-covered hills.
