Letter regarding Naval Hospital, Building #1
Naval Medical Center, Portsmouth, Virginia
“In my opinion this project exceeds the normal standards of the Architect/Engineer industry in terms of coordination quality. It is clear that a large amount of effort was expended by the project design team in the area of coordination as we found far fewer coordination discrepancies than expected on a project of this size.”
