Beam Signing Ceremony ‘Tops Off’ Tarzana Medical Atrium Milestone

The new Tarzana Medical Atrium, on the campus of Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center, located in Tarzana, California, celebrated its topping off with a beam signing ceremony and has passed the midway point of construction. TMA Owner Steve Loo, project executives and representatives from the architect, engineering and construction companies building TMA signed the 31-foot, 1,085 pound final beam of the steel structure.

The three-story, 90,000-square-foot Class A medical office building sits on a two-acre site adjacent to Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center. Medical Asset Management is managing the project, which will be the first new building in 25 years on the hospital campus. It is being built on what was previously a paved parking lot. The project will also include a 420-space parking structure with valet assist.

The ground floor of TMA will be built to accommodate California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development medical uses, such as an ambulatory surgery center or dialysis center. Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center has already committed to use half of the ground-floor space, which will feature a two-story lobby atrium. The second and third floors are also partially leased. The remaining space is designed to best accommodate larger groups or services at a minimum of 5,500 square feet.

The facility was designed by Boulder Associates, Inc. and is being built by Millie & Severson. In addition, Parkco Building Company is the Design-Builder for the parking structure, Stantec is the civil engineering firm on the project and SimmsCo, Inc. performed land use, planning and building permitting services, and will provide additional plan-check and permit services, as needed.

Construction continues on the office building and parking structure, which are scheduled for completion by the end of 2019.
