(Peoria, AZ.) \u2013\u00a0October 30, 2020 \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>Saunders Construction<\/strong><\/a>, a leading construction manager\/general contractor based in Colorado, and BCS Demo<\/a> started the demolition of the Peoria Regional Medical Center (PRMC) and plan to have the existing structure demolished by mid-November 2020. First Service Medical, a development and investment group, purchased the seven-acre property and plans to replace it with a new state-of-the-art medical campus.<\/p>\n

\u201cSaunders is well known for our work building modern medical facilities in the Mountain West with numerous new projects under our belt,\u201d said Ryan Balakas, vice president of Saunders. \u201cWe are thrilled to be serving the local Peoria, Arizona community on this long-awaited project and partnering with this great team.\u201d<\/p>\n

The medical center has been an abandoned construction project for the past 10 years in the north part of the city, near the southwest corner of Lake Pleasant Parkway and Jomax Road. The demolition process will be done as expeditiously as possible while maintaining all state guidelines for COVID-19, including a QR code personnel check-in for onsite tracing. The team will be using a Trackhoe CAT 349 to demo the existing structure and a high side end loading semi-trucks to haul off steel.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeoria has spent many years working to remove the skeletal remains of PRMC and although many roadblocks have stalled our efforts, Peoria persevered in securing a demolition order while working to find the right owner for this site,\u201d said Mayor Cathy Carlat. \u201cWe are thankful for First Service Medical’s commitment to demolishing the blighted structure and we look forward to the development of a superior medical campus to serve our growing community.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been such a long journey to get to this point\u201d said Bridget Binsbacher,\u00a0Peoria\u00a0city councilmember. \u00a0\u201cOur community is ready to see this old structure come down and watch the new, advanced medical center take shape.”<\/p>\n
