Building Information
This project added approximately 20,000 square feet of new space and demolished the portion of the building that was built in 1954. Nearly 14,500 square feet of the building constructed in 1968 was fully renovated. The addition and renovations created space for acute care services that allow more patients to be seen per day and decreases wait times. Patient wait times for visits that require laboratory testing have decreased by 30-50 minutes on average since building renovations were finished.
The new building offers patients primary care and women’s health services in addition to wellness-care services such as massage, acupuncture and chiropractic. Public spaces at the facility include semi-private indoor and outdoor waiting areas, which double as quiet places for student study.
The addition and renovation followed highly sustainable practices. During the project, construction waste was diverted from landfills and reused whenever possible. Concrete from the old courtyard was sawn into blocks and repurposed into the landscaping, and bricks and recyclable materials from the building demolition were salvaged and used in other areas. The project was certified by the U.S. Green Building Council as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Platinum, the council’s highest designation. Read more at ASU News.
