The UCSF Medical Center at Mount Zion is a hospital dedicated to outpatient clinics, surgery, and cancer care. Mount Zion will remain committed to patient care even if an expansion takes place. ZSFGH will relaunch their Building Committee meetings in March and a new academic research building will be built at ZSFGH, because the old buildings are not seismically safe.
“ZSFGH is owned by the city and county of San Francisco, but is staffed by a portion of UCSF faculty,” Yamauchi said. “The plan is to return our old research buildings to the city, who owns them and instead construct a new research building where the parking lot is.”

The Kingdom Hall is made entirely out of red brick. The Kingdom Hall building is a simple setup. They have a general meeting area with about 150 seats inside and a podium for speaking purposes. They have a couple of additional rooms for storage purposes and multipurpose areas like a kitchen and other open areas for different things.
