From Rick Leitzinger, Assoc. AIA:
"Our first Cat-a-lyst event for 2006 is finally here. Stanley Saitowitz has graciously offered to take point on a new season of office and building tours. Come join us Saturday, March 25th at 1022 Natoma Street, San Francisco. The tour will start at 11:00 AM. We look forward to see you there. Should be lots of fun and very informative.

Her are just a few examples of his work that you might be familiar with:
Beth Sholom
Sited at the intersection of Park Presidio and Clements Street, the project’s early plans called for the establishment of a pair of religious structures; one, a neo-classical Christen Science Church, the other a Congregation Beth Sholom whose two buildings sit on a plinth, forming an elevated courtyard. The first building is a masonry sanctuary, the second, a radiant cube housing all other spaces of the congregation.
Oxbow
The Oxbow School is a one semester fine arts program for high school juniors from public and independent schools nationwide. It offers students the opportunity for in depth study and practice of the visual arts. The school has been initiated by Robert Mondovi and Ann Hatch.

RFQ: Shiley Eye Center Clinical Expansion
The University of California, San Diego (UCSD) will select an Executive Architect to prepare construction and bid documents and provide construction administration phase services for the Shiley Eye Center Clinical Expansion, located at the UCSD Medical Center, La Jolla campus. This project consists of the preparation of construction documents as well as providing bid phase and construction administration phase services for the Shiley Eye Center Clinical Expansion.

In conformance with the Public Contract Code and University policy, when the proposed scope of services is expected to result in a contract amount that exceeds $100,000, the University is required to conduct a formal consultant selection process. Since the anticipated amount for the services required in support of this project will exceed that threshold, the University will make the selection in accordance with such procedures.
