An artist’s concept image shows the square, gray rooftop of a hospital building with three concept aircraft sitting on top. One aircraft is painted dark blue, and two are painted with red and white paint schemes. Each aircraft has several unique propellors and wings to showcase that these aircraft can take off and land on short runways or vertically. The words “Century Medical Center” – in red – sit below the rooftop landing pad with several rows of windows underneath. In the background, there are several rows of trees, buildings, and parking garages, to show that this building is inside of a city.
