California Tower Project

California Tower Project

The proposed California Tower Project includes multiple components: (1) make-ready projects to prepare for construction, (2) upgrades to the Campus’s Central Utility Plant to provide increased capacity for the project, (3) renovation of approximately 85,000 gross square feet (gsf) of the existing Surgery and Emergency Services Pavilion to connect the California Tower and the existing hospital, (4) construction of Parking Garage 5, (5) construction of the approximately 1,010,000-square-foot California Tower (net increase of 890,000 gsf), and (6) demolition of the approximately 120,000 gsf East Main Hospital Wing (East Wing). The primary project components are summarized below in Table 1. In addition, UC Davis proposes to amend the 2020 Long Range Development Plan (LRDP) to revise the height restriction in the Hospital land use designation from 200 feet to 290 feet in areas 180 feet beyond the property line.The Campus is located near the State Route 99/Interstate 80 Business interchange in the city of Sacramento. Located east of Stockton Boulevard and northwest of the intersection of X Street and 45th Street, the proposed site of the California Tower is at the east end of the existing UC Davis Medical Center.
