Kaiser Permanente broke ground this week for a new 303-bed Kaiser San Jose Medical Center at 250 Hospital Parkway, on the campus of the current 50-year-old hospital. The new hospital is set to open in the fall of 2029.
The project proposal includes new construction of a hospital and energy center, and demolition of the existing medical center. The project site has multiple addresses along southeast of Cottle Road and Highway 85/ramp.
Stance Architecture, a Phoenix, Ariz., firm, is responsible for the designs.
The campus site is a parcel spanning an area of 39.2 acres. The project will demolish the existing 250,000-square-foot, seven-story, 247-bed hospital at 250 Hospital Parkway and remove 130 trees along Santa Teresa Boulevard and Camino Verde Drive.
The project includes the construction of a six-story, 685,000-square-foot hospital and a 35,000- square-foot energy center/service yard, plus a Boulevard and Camino Verde Drive. Additionally, the scope of work includes the construction of a five-level, 350,000-square-foot parking structure.
The existing hospital will be demolished after the construction of the new hospital is complete.
