MYCON General Contractors has completed construction of the First Choice Emergency Room, located at 3301 Lakeview Parkway on a 0.8-acre tract at the northwest corner of Rowlett Road and Highway 66 in Rowlett, Texas. First Choice Emergency Room (FCER), the largest network of independent freestanding emergency rooms in the nation, is an Adeptus Health (NYSE:ADPT) company.
The 6,931 sf facility houses full diagnostic and radiology suites, including CT scanners, ultrasound and digital X-rays; several exam rooms; a nurse’s station; a laboratory and other emergency room support spaces. The project includes medical grade HVAC distribution systems and roof top units along with First Choice’s exterior branding components, including the signature entry tower, feature walls, entry and ambulance canopies.
“Freestanding emergency rooms are one of the newest building types in today’s retail-oriented healthcare industry,” says MYCON’s vice president Jacob Riney, CHC, HCC, EDAC, LEED® AP BD+C. “As our region continues to experience population increases, we expect to see continued growth in this building type as healthcare providers compete to add market share by offering more services that are convenient, consumer-oriented and cost-effective.”
The project team included real estate developer PM Realty Group (PMRG) and GSR Andrade Architects. Construction financing was arranged by Metropolitan Capital Advisors with a $5,063,000 loan funded by Happy State Bank. First Choice Emergency in Rowlett opened last month.
