Mayo Clinic has announced a nearly $1.9 billion investment in the continued transformation of its Phoenix, Arizona campus. At the core of the investment is a 1.2-million-square-foot expansion project, which includes construction of a new procedural building, a five-floor vertical and horizontal expansion of the Mayo Clinic Specialty Building, the integration of technology, the addition of 11 new operating rooms and two new patient units supporting 48 additional beds, and an enhanced arrival experience for patients and visitors.
The plan also calls for a two-story, indoor promenade that wraps around the front of the campus, creating cohesion and convenience for patients and visitors as they move from building to building. Another prominent feature in the new design will be the development of care neighborhoods that cluster complementary clinical services for a more intuitive and connected patient experience.
Design for the Arizona expansion begins this year with project completion slated for 2031. This endeavor will involve numerous architectural and general contractor firms. An initial design and construction team of McCarthy, Gensler and Arup Group has been formed; more collaborators will be named in the coming months.
