SAN DIEGO, CA, October 09, 2010

Construction Digital, the top digital media source for global construction news and information reveals the benefits of green hospitals and details of the San Francisco Transbay Transit Center in the redesigned October issue.

For the October cover story, we speak with Jeffrey Rich of Gundersen Lutheran to learn the benefits of sustainable health care facilities. "We have a duty to be good stewards of how we use energy, and try to produce or use clean energy," he says in the article. We also speak with Phil Williams, vice president of sustainability and technical systems for Webcor, the builder responsible for the new San Francisco General Hospital.

In the new Under Construction section, we delve into the details of the Transbay Transit Center, touted to be the "Grand Central of the West" and one of the San Francisco's largest construction projects. The center, designed by Pelli Clarke Pelli, will serve as a cutting edge multi-modal transportation hub for the Bay Area's eleven public transit systems and feature several green elements including natural light, energy efficiency components and an urban park.
