Students from the Los Angeles Unified School District interested in pursuing a career in medical science can apply for enrollment. The high school, which has a capacity of 800 students, is located on property donated by the adjacent Orthopedic Hospital.
Real Estate Development
Hensel Phelps Real Estate Development completed the development of the new Orthopedic Hospital Medical Magnet High School. At the time, the project was awarded under a new contracting approach by LAUSD. Hensel Phelps Real Estate Development was responsible for providing construction financing for the project and, upon completion, sold the project back to LAUSD. This project demonstrated Hensel Phelps Real Estate Development’s strengths and expertise in the areas of real estate development, project financing, Public Private Partnerships (P3) and project management/owner’s representation.
