NEWS: Sinclair Breaks Ground on $31.5 Million Health Sciences Building and Strategy
Sinclair Delivers on Levy Promise to Deliver Health Care Personnel Faster, in Greater Numbers and With More Refined Skills
The Sinclair Board of Trustees broke ground on a $31 million renovated and updated health sciences center on campus in the existing Building 14. Sinclair will finance the project by leveraging existing state funds, tapping allocated leveraged savings funds, raising money through community partners, and will fulfill a levy campaign promise by using funds from the new levy passed in November of 2015. The $16 million in levy funding will allow the college to responsibly invest in the project without taking on costly debt and to move the project along faster for the benefit of thousands of students pursuing 41 health science degree and certificate programs. The Health Sciences Center will open Fall of 2017 and will benefit the thousands of students seeking job related health care education in the coming decades.
“This is a great day for Sinclair and a great day for health care in this community,” Sinclair President Steve Johnson said. “Health care will require greater investment in cross training across disciplines and greater focuses on simulation and home care. This facility and strategy will allow Sinclair to meet those needs with talented personnel in greater numbers at a more advanced rate of progress. Sinclair has delivered on a key promise and greatly appreciates the continued support we receive from the people of Montgomery County.”
“Sinclair is dedicated to finding and meeting the needs of this community and a great coming need in this community will be in the health care sector,” Sinclair Board of Trustees Chair Rob Connelly said. “This project will allow Sinclair to meet the emerging needs in health care and position our graduates well in vitally needed fields. Thanks to the approach Sinclair has taken in working with faculty and industry partners in this project, our students will have the skills they need to compete a greatly changing health care marketplace.”
The project will add approximately 59,000 square feet of space to the existing Ned J. Sifferlen Center and will move health programs from as many as ten buildings on campus to one consolidated space. A goal of Sinclair’s strategy that is reflected in the new center is to increase collaboration across disciplines to reflect the structural changes happening in American health care. Students who graduate with a health sciences credential from Sinclair make a median wage of $49,000 after graduation.

Dreyfuss + Blackford Architecture’s design for the Powerhouse Science Center re-envisions a historic riverfront structure as a hub for science education, exploration and promotion in the City of Sacramento. On the banks of the Sacramento River, the Science Center grows out from an abandoned power station building. As a principal component of the Riverfront activation, the Powerhouse Science Center anchors Robert T. Matsui Waterfront Park and borders the southern terminus of the 32-mile American River Bike Trail.
Vacant for over half a century, the structure undergoes a complete historic rehabilitation and the construction of a new floor level inside. A new two-story addition projects from the east side, containing a lobby, classrooms, offices and a cafe. A 110-seat planetarium is prominently on display with a zinc-clad hemispheric dome rising above the building’s mass. As representation of our place in the universe, the facade and building mass is sectioned by multiple planes, creating continuous vector lines that extend across the building and site. From satellites to world landmarks, the lines form connections with local and global points of interest.
The original PG&E Power Station B was designed in 1912 in the Beaux Arts Style by architect Willis Polk and was formally closed in 1954. It is on the National Register of Historic Places, California Register of Historic Places and the Sacramento Register of Historic & Cultural Resources. The Powerhouse Science Center is designed to achieve a USGBC LEED Rating of Silver.
