IMH Lutheran Medical Center MOB

The Intermountain Health Lutheran Medical Center MOB will provide comprehensive care in a fast-growing market.

Over the last decade, Denver has seen significant growth in the medical office building product type, ranked in the top 25 cities for medical office building commercial property growth by CommercialEdge metrics. The location of medical office buildings is strategic, often close to hospitals to enhance patient convenience. Intermountain Health has been executing its plan to construct a replacement medical campus for the Lutheran Medical Center in Wheat Ridge, Colo., approximately 3.5 miles from the existing site. Once complete, it will include a new hospital, parking garage and medical office building offering a centralized location for a wide range of medical services.

Saunders Construction broke ground on the medical office building in May 2023 , developed by NexCore Group and designed by Davis Partnership Architects. With five-stories and 138,000 square feet, it will connect to the replacement hospital’s parking garage via a pedestrian footbridge. The building is set to provide comprehensive care in a fast-growing market, with 12 confirmed tenants and more space available. The new hospital is expected to open a few weeks before the medical office building, and on-time delivery is critical to maintain Intermountain Health’s services.
