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.
