University of California San Francisco (UCSF) has begun construction on the UCSF Health Helen Diller Hospital at Parnassus Heights. As part of the design team, Arup is providing a suite of services including mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering, acoustics and vibration consulting, civil engineering, lighting design, logistics, and sustainability consulting.
In partnership with Mazzetti, HDR, Herzog & de Meuron, and Herrero Boldt Webcor, the project team is collaborating to realize a highly complex medical facility that integrates forward-looking, innovative design to support UCSF’s commitment to world-renowned patient care, clinical research, and training. The UCSF Health Helen Diller Hospital will be the eastern cornerstone of a comprehensive, 30-year plan to transform UCSF’s flagship Parnassus Heights campus and drive innovations in care delivery, discovery, and health sciences education. The first decade of the plan pairs the new hospital with a research and academic building that is expected to open in 2028 on the western edge of the campus.
