Will PPH's New Hospital Fit on the Vacant Kmart Site?

The Palomar Pomerado Health (PPH) district showed a design for the new hospital on the ERTC site at a recent public meeting. PPH has been working on the new hospital design for many months. The hospital has a footprint of about 12 acres (820 feet by 620 feet). Adjacent to the hospital are parking structures and a central plant building with footprints totaling about 3 acres. Curiously, the footprint of the new hospital, when overlaid on the vacant Kmart site, appears to fit.

The new hospital will fit on other sites around the City of Escondido. Click on the following link to see other sites examples:

What does not fit is the 300,000 square foot Medical Office Building space that PPH wants built under a shadowy "no-bid" contract on about 12 acres next to the new hospital in the ERTC. (See next post)
