What is that huge building at the SW corner of 78 and 15?

I don’t drive up there often. Just curious.

Must be the building that north county voters approved some years ago, iirc

Are you talking about the new hospital?

It’s really stunning, a good design from what I can see so far. I can see it from most places I drive in San Marcos/Esco, it’s going to be quite a landmark and point of reference.

The funny part is that I once asked a staff member at Stone Brewery why they don’t get a live band in the grass area outside. His response was “you DO see that hospital going up next door, don’t you?”

Touche!

It is a testament to how big health care have become in our economy.

It’s a $1 billion building.

Anybody know is there are municipal bonds involved?
