The Austin Family Health Center is a two-story, ground-up medical office building which serves as the headquarters for PCC Wellness. This new facility contains administrative offices, conference rooms, educational classrooms, 15 medical and dental examination rooms, a pharmacy, outpatient procedure rooms and laboratories. This facility will also serve as the telecommunications and data backbone for the entire PCC network. Highlights include the curtain wall glazing system at the entrance and the diamond-polished concrete floors throughout. The building is LEED Gold certified and will utilize a geothermal mechanical system to provide heat and air conditioning to the facility. In addition to the green roof, a small wetland constructed in the center of the parking lot will provide further storm water control. All the landscaping features drought-tolerant native plants that require no irrigation. The building is completely barrier-free to both patients and employees. Madison Construction worked with the owner and architect to value engineer the project in order to provide a more economical, cost effective, and usable facility.
