Building History

Work was done on the Stanford Medical Center by San Francisco architect Rex Whitaker Allen (1914-2008) in 1954-1955. New York architect Edward Durell Stone (1902-1978) produced the completed design of the Stanford University Medical Center, located on campus. It moved from San Francisco, CA, where it was located previously.
