Bayview Demolition, Environmental, & Industrial

Bayview Environmental Services completed the phased hazardous materials abatement and soft demolition of the five-story Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute (LPPI) at 401 Parnassus Avenue on UCSF’s main medical campus. The work included abatement of exterior support buildings, followed by extensive interior abatement and selective demolition throughout LPPI in preparation for the building’s eventual demolition and replacement with a new hospital.

The project was performed in multiple phases and included construction and maintenance of containments, removal of wall, floor and ceiling finishes, and demolition of impacted interior materials. A significant portion of the work was completed while portions of the medical building remained occupied by patients and staff, requiring careful coordination, flexible work hours, and strict controls to minimize disruption. Bayview successfully completed the work while maintaining safe and productive operations in a challenging active healthcare environment.
