The new Scripps Health Medical Office Building is set to open in Carlsbad on October 20, 2008, joining the facility that already exists in Encinitas.
This multi-story 40,000+ SF building set high on a high (with fab views I might add) is just off El Camino Real north of Faraday at 2176 Salk Avenue (appropriately named, I assume, after Jonas Salk, the polio vaccine guy). Carlsbad doesn't have a hospital so this is viewed as a positive addition despite some concerns about traffic in the office park area.
The Carlsbad Planning Commission has recently approved a second Scripps medical facility to be built in the same general area on a 5-acre parcel and expected to be completed in about 3 years.
The wall, above, is an interesting sight, at the entrance road to the office park. This was built at the edge of the hilly land along El Camino Real - I imagine there are some environmental/erosion issues at stake here. It's pretty impressive.

Jeff I am fortunate to have two fairly new medical facilities near me, they are a huge benefit to our town and community.
Hey Jeff,
That's got to be a big deal for the area! As for Salk Ave. I love it.
Hi Jeff
What a nice looking commercial building.
Hope all is well.
Sincerely
Tom Braatz
Hi Jeff, I am so impressed with the new facility. Some of my health services, previously provided at the La Jolla will be provided in the new center. Looking forward to seeing it. Nice post and very useful for Carlsbad community as well.
Jeff, that truly is impressive, as William said. I remember when Salk was in La Jolla and when Elizabeth Taylor went to the La Jolla facility because it was THE place to go. Does that make me old???
