Healing Partnership: Community Embedded Medical Office Building
Location: Snellville, Georgia
Project Overview: Northside Hospital is known for their quality of care. For decades Hodges & Hicks has worked alongside them to deliver projects of various sizes to communities across Georgia. This particular medical office facility serves as the anchor to Gwinnet’s The Grove at Town Center. An opportunity to bring care closer to the community, Hodges & Hicks led the team through a challenging market, keeping the schedule on track and managing the budget – all in an effort to deliver on the promises made to a long-standing client.
Highlights:
- This endeavor represents construction of the base building and several subsequent tenant build-outs – all performed to the standards expected by Northside Hospital.
- Market dynamics challenged the budget and timeline of the project, yet Hodges & Hicks remained committed to success.
- Collaborating with the designer, Hodges & Hicks identified new and available materials to solve budget and schedule challenges.
- Hodges & Hicks experienced healthcare superintendents provided strong field management, helping progress the work despite labor challenges.
- Nestled within a larger community development, Hodges & Hicks coordinated deliveries to mitigate interruptions to traffic patterns and Gwinnett neighbors.
- With a reputation for consistent performance, the Hodges & Hicks team was chosen to provide supervision during construction of many of the tenant spaces within the base building. This continuity of operations provided the most efficient workflow and planning possible.
- Phased turnovers of the interior space kept the building on track to meet the final completion date.
- Additional sitework package was completed for a “commons” area, connecting the project with the residential and other components of The Grove.
Results: This medical office building serves as an anchor within the community of Snellville in Gwinnett County Georgia. A catalyst to the redevelopment in the area, this building makes care more accessible to thousands of community residents seeking the quality of care offered by Northside Hospital. With an amazing track-record of success, Hodges & Hicks looks to continue offering the level of service the hospital system and Realty Trust Group have come to expect on future community expansions.
