As the only acute care facility available to the public on the island of Coronado, the front and back doors of the campus, including the vehicle and pedestrian approaches, lacked identity, character, and aesthetic. This created chaotic and confusing traffic and parking scenarios.
The $750,000 renovation included modifying the valet and patient drop off areas and approach and introduced a traffic island with appropriate landscape.
Also included are water features, donor recognition elements, lighting, an appropriately scaled trellis on the side facing a residential street, and a modern steel and glass canopy at the main entrance. The prospect requires approval by multiple agencies and community groups.
