SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA – Delivering a much-needed medical building to the bustling West Valley, Sigma Contracting, Inc. completed site work and is going vertical with Arrowhead Endoscopy Center in Glendale, Arizona.
The 12,280 SF building sits on 2.3 acres at 17438 N. 71st Drive, in Glendale. Owned by Pavasime LLC, the facility is scheduled to open this summer. The architect of record is Phoenix-based, triARC Architecture & Design.
The new construction project consists of a single-story medical facility with associated site improvements and parking for a group of practitioners that has been together for 11 years. It will become the new facility for this group of doctors expanding their ability to help the local community that requires these procedures.
Demand for outpatient medical services, including upper endoscopies, colonoscopies and endoscopic ultrasound, has necessitated a larger facility. The new facility will have six pre-procedure bays, procedure rooms, and six post-procedure recovery bays, as well as consult and office space.
“Sigma has been very excited to be working with triARC Architecture & Design, a noted leader in medical facility design and architecture,” said Sigma President Dan Hinkson. “This project will bring needed space to accommodate the market demand for Arrowhead Endoscopy’s services in the surrounding community, as well as add to Sigma’s continually expanding portfolio in medical projects.”
The city of Glendale is experiencing unprecedented growth in both commercial development and job creation. With a 2020 population of approximately 260,000 residents, it is the seventh-largest city in Arizona and the 87th largest city in the U.S. Glendale is currently growing at a rate of 0.94% annually and its population has increased by 14.53% since the most recent census, which recorded a population of 226,721 in 2010.
“It was delightful to have the opportunity to create this project for Arrowhead Endoscopy with the great team at Sigma. Despite supply chain challenges, Sigma is delivering this top-notch medical facility to the West Valley,” said Jill B. Hamblen, AIA, Principal at triARC Architecture & Design.
