UCSF Opens $228M Health-Care Facility
Construction of the five-story building started in 2021.
UCSF Health opens today Bayfront Medical Building, a 181,000-square-foot outpatient clinic, at its Mission Bay medical campus in San Francisco. The project’s development costs amounted to $228 million, San Francisco Chronicle reported.
Clark Construction Group broke ground on the five-story building in September 2021. The development team also included Stantec, Rutherford + Chekene and Guttmann & Blaevoet, among others.
A few months later, a nine-level garage started to rise nearby, meant to provide 500 car parking spaces for the new clinic. That structure came online in 2023.

Its medical tenant roster includes the flagship UCSF Medical Center, UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, Langley Porter Psychiatric Hospital and Clinics and UCSF Faculty Practice, Becker’s Hospital Review reported.
The clinic will provide a variety of medical services, including allergy, dermatology, endocrinology, hepatology, pulmonology, urology, gastroenterology, pain medicine, physical therapy and rehabilitation and vascular surgery.
Formerly known as Block 34 Clinical Building, the facility is at 520 Illinois St., having access to Interstate 280 and public transportation. Downtown San Francisco is less than 3 miles away. Other medical providers in the surrounding area include Cardinal Medical Center and Concentra Urgent Care, among others.
