I still think it is a very cool building.

I do think it's a bad design though, I mean getting around that thing must be a major pain in the ass!

ASU, YMCA in Phoenix partner on building
University pays $25 mil for addition to downtown facility

The Lincoln Family Downtown YMCA in Phoenix is about to become a construction site.

Arizona State University is paying an estimated $25 million to build a 64,283-square-foot building addition to the recreation center that was built in 1955 and last renovated in 2006.

ASU officials say the five-story project will increase classroom space for the campus and improve the YMCA's fitness amenities. The new building will be connected to the current building, at First Avenue and Van Buren Street in downtown Phoenix.


Construction is scheduled to begin this month.

Money for the project comes from student-facility fees. Each ASU student pays a $75 facility fee per semester that is spent on projects for student services, such as a student union and recreation centers.

An estimated 16,000 students take classes at the downtown campus -- some full time, some part time. About 2,500 of them are members of the downtown YMCA, officials said.

The YMCA also has another 2,500 members who aren't ASU employees or students. Many of them work downtown while others are residents in the area, said Greg Corns, senior executive director of the facility.

"It's what a downtown Y should be," Corns said. "It's a (convergence) of all these different cultures downtown -- student population, professional population and youth population."

As the plan for the public-private project was unfolding over the course of a year, some of the YMCA members who were not ASU students raised concerns that the ASU building addition would be exclusive to the university students, faculty and staff.

Patrick Panetta, associate director of ASU's real-estate development office, said for the most part, the new building addition will be open to all members.

However, "the classroom spaces -- those really won't be open to the public," Panetta said. "And there will be an outdoor pool on the fifth floor with locker rooms exclusively for ASU students."

The YMCA's current indoor pool and locker rooms will remain open to all members.

Because of the project, the YMCA is losing a small parking area next to the current building's south wall. Panetta said some temporary parking will be opened on the building's west side next to the YMCA's other parking lot.

Panetta said work on the project should wrap up by fall 2013.

Maricopa County nixes hospital-tax vote
Measure to upgrade facilities may find way onto ballot within 2 years
28 commentsby Michelle Ye Hee Lee - Jul. 20, 2012 10:44 PM
The Republic | azcentral.com
.

County health officials scuttled a plan to ask voters in November for a new tax to upgrade county health facilities, but the matter could go on the ballot within the next two years.

The board of directors of the Maricopa Integrated Health System on Friday rejected the proposal by Betsey Bayless, MIHS president and chief executive, to put the measure on this year's general-election ballot. It would have asked voters to raise taxes for a $950 million bond issue to pay for a new county hospital and improvements to existing facilities.

Instead, the board decided to vote next month on whether to start a year-long public outreach and input process for a new county hospital, which also would serve as a clinical and academic research facility for the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Phoenix.

MIHS signed a deal with the college last October to become the school's primary training, teaching and research hospital.

Though Bayless felt that the timing was ideal to put a measure on this fall's ballot, most board members disagreed. While all concurred that a new hospital is needed, the majority felt that the measure was being rushed onto the ballot without getting extensive public input.

Next month's vote would direct staff to begin the public review process. Then, hospital-system officials plan to form a committee that would hold town halls or meetings across the county. The planning would be done with hopes to place the item on the 2013 or 2014 ballot, Bayless said.

Several top hospital officials supported Bayless' initial proposal, among them UA College of Medicine Dean Dr. Stuart Flynn and Dr. Kote Chundu. Chundu is president of MIHS' not-for-profit physician group and chief executive officer at the Maricopa Medical Center.

MIHS officials for years have discussed the need for a new hospital, and this fall was the right time to ask voters, Chundu told board members. He said it would be a worthwhile investment that would help improve county health, create new jobs and result in long-term savings for taxpayers.

"This November is not too soon," Chundu told the board. "From a strategic perspective, this has been talked about, and talked about, and talked about."

Maricopa Medical Center, MIHS' main facility near Roosevelt and 24th streets, is about 40 years old. MIHS is a publicly funded health system that provides a safety net for many of the county's poorest residents.

Dr. David Wisinger, chief of MIHS medical staff, told the board Friday that his staff is "painfully aware" MIHS is a "sorely underfunded" public health system, adding challenges to the effort to provide high-quality services to patients.

He said a new hospital and better facilities could help teach and retain more medical residents, helping overcome Arizona's physician shortage.

The last countywide special bond election was in 1998, when voters approved a county jail bond. In 2003, voters approved the creation of a county special health-care district, which is now MIHS.

The board began discussing the option of a November special bond election during private meetings in May, Bayless said.

Friday was the first public discussion by board members.

Bayless hoped for Friday approval, which would allow nearly four months to educate the public.

A year-long planning process will give hospital-system administrators a better idea of what the new hospital will be like, Bayless said.

Administrators will not begin detailed architectural design and planning until voter approval is in hand.

UA medical school in Phoenix a hub of growth
At UA medical school in Phoenix, new students and new buildings underscore promise for future
5 commentsby Ken Alltucker - Jul. 21, 2012 03:37 PM
The Republic | azcentral.com
.

With the arrival of 80 fresh-faced medical students for classes this week at University of Arizona's medical school in Phoenix, Arizona's grand experiment to create a medical and research hub in downtown Phoenix takes another step forward.

The 80 students represent the largest class since the UA College of Medicine established a downtown Phoenix campus five years ago. Those future doctors soon will share the newly opened health sciences education building with Northern Arizona University students who are studying to become physical therapists and physician assistants.

Beyond the new building, new programs and new students, the campus is scheduled to expand later this year with the groundbreakings of a 250,000-square-foot University of Arizona Cancer Center and a privately funded biotech lab next to the building anchored by the Translational Genomics Research Institute and International Genomics Consortium.

The downtown Phoenix campus also could receive renewed focus from the University of Arizona's new president, Ann Weaver Hart, and the Arizona Board of Regents' newly formed health committee.

Arizona leaders have high expectations that the Phoenix Biomedical Campus will sprout jobs, health-care professionals and medical discoveries that bolster Arizona's effort to grow its health-care and biotechnology sectors. And even though the biomedical campus has had challenges -- such as Arizona State University ending its partnership with UA's medical school and leadership changes -- university officials are optimistic about the biomedical campus' potential.

"It's important to show it is continuing forward progress," said Jay Heiler, who chairs the Arizona Board of Regents health committee. "It is critical not only for the universities. It is going to end up emerging as a very important piece of Arizona's economy."

Cancer-center plans
Although the medical-school campus has classroom and lab space, it does not have clinical space where practitioners and health-care students can hone their craft and treat patients. The Arizona Cancer Center is slated to become the campus' first clinical presence with a scheduled groundbreaking later this year.

St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center and the University of Arizona are still negotiating lease terms for the $135 million cancer center even though the Phoenix wanted such details to be completed by the end of June. Both parties insist that they are on track to meet the most important goal established by Phoenix: starting construction by Dec. 22.

Plans call for St. Joseph's Hospital to operate the cancer center's clinic, and 70 percent of the building's area will be devoted to clinical space. But the exact amount of space that St. Joseph's will require is subject to ongoing talks between the two groups, said Dr. David Alberts, director of the Arizona Cancer Center.

Alberts said development costs could end up being less than the estimated $135 million because construction and materials costs have dropped since the recession. The University of Arizona has pledged $85 million in bonds to fund the bulk of the project's development costs. Phoenix also has pledged $14 million. The University of Arizona Foundation expects to raise more than $30 million from private donors for the balance of funding.

"The first step is to get the lease signed and, at that point, we'll be in a much stronger position," said Alberts. "The financing of the building is dependent upon the lease agreement."

Suzanne Pfister, St. Joseph's vice president of external affairs, said the amount of space the Phoenix hospital will lease at the new cancer center "has not been determined yet."

Alberts and Pfister emphasized that as talks over lease terms continue, both groups are forging ahead on other aspects of the project such as branding, combining resources and reaching out to community cancer doctors who will be courted for the new center.

"The relationship with St. Joseph's has really been solidified," Alberts said. "We are already starting to hire key faculty and staff" for a smaller, temporary cancer clinic that has launched at the Phoenix hospital.

Seeking tenants
The other new building slated for the downtown Phoenix Biomedical Campus is one planned between the existing TGen and Arizona Biomedical Collaborative building on Fifth Street.

The Boyer Co., a Salt Lake City-based developer, is attempting to lease space to companies or other users for the planned six-story, 150,000-square-foot building. No leases have been announced for the building, but plans call for construction to start before the end of the year, according to Jeremy Legg, of Phoenix's economic development department.

Matt Jensen, Boyer's project manager for the biomedical campus, said that the company is negotiating with a handful of government and private-sector tenants for the building.

Boyer's development agreement with the city requires leases for 80 percent of the building prior to construction, but Jensen said lenders may be willing to fund the project if 50 to 60 percent of the building is leased.

Boyer also plans to develop a 1,250-space parking garage on the campus. The timing and finances of the parking garage may be tricky because Boyer needs to ensure enough workers from both the cancer center and the lab will fill the garage before it can start construction. And those users could be assessed a monthly fee of $60 to $90, or perhaps more, for parking at the garage.

Even with new lab workers paying for parking, it's unclear whether the finances will support construction of a new garage.

"It would help to have some city funding," said Jensen, adding that the critical mass of employees and students to the biomedical campus is crucial to making the finances of building a parking garage work.

"You are not going to be able to just build a speculative parking garage and hope it is paid for," he said.

Legg said that if the Boyer Co. is unable to fulfill terms of the agreement with Phoenix, the city could solicit other developers or pursue other projects.

"If they can't make it work, we would retain the land and find somebody else who can do a project that makes sense for the city," Legg said.

Medical-school campus
As the UA's medical-school campus expands in downtown Phoenix, it also is shaping an identity that is unique from the UA's main medical-school campus in Tucson. Just last month, the Phoenix campus received its own preliminary accreditation from the Association of American Medical Colleges. The Phoenix campus previously operated under the Tucson campus' accreditation.

Such a designation validates the Phoenix campus and gives its more autonomy in crafting its own curriculum, according to university leaders.

"It is maturing to a stage that some of us might not have expected so quickly," said Lyle Bootman, the university's interim vice president of health affairs.

Bootman said each campus has been designed with unique curricula and nuances in the academic programs. Tucson students, for example, train at the University of Arizona Medical Center in Tucson, while Phoenix students train at different hospitals in the community, such as Banner Good Samaritan, Maricopa Medical Center and St. Joseph's.

The Phoenix students also are required to complete a scholarly project that has a community impact, such as studying obesity rates among Native Americans and Hispanics or pain management for cancer patients.

Bootman said he doesn't expect dramatic changes from the new Phoenix campus' accreditation, but he said "it does give them more autonomy and control over part of the curriculum."

While some Tucson faculty have expressed worries in the past that the Phoenix campus would divert the medical school's limited resources, Bootman said that each campus should build off its strengths. The Phoenix students may benefit from learning from scientists at Barrow Neurological Institute, Banner Alzheimer's Institute or TGen. Conversely, the Tucson students can learn from experts at the Sarver Heart Center or the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine.

Community leaders have paid close attention to the changes afoot at the downtown Phoenix campus.

Maricopa Integrated Health Systems CEO Betsey Bayless has long sought to build a new hospital at the downtown campus to replace the district's Maricopa Medical Center. On Friday, the district's board rejected a proposal to pursue a ballot initiative this fall that would ask voters to approve a $950 million bond issue for a new hospital and renovations to other facilities.

The board instead will vote next month whether to pursue a plan with public input with the goal of placing it on the November 2013 or November 2014 ballot.

"That is the board's decision," Bayless said last week before the district board's Friday vote. "It is my vision to establish a clinical presence on the University of Arizona's College of Medicine campus."

Arizona Board of Regents Chair Rick Myers said he expects UA's new president also will play a critical role in growing UA's presence on the Phoenix Biomedical Campus.

"She (Hart) absolutely wants to be aggressive, to build a competitive plan and do things that will make the (Phoenix Biomedical Campus) a resource for Arizona," Myers said.

Myers said he wants to see all three of the state's public universities to work together to make the state more competitive in obtaining federal grants and making new discoveries.

"I know there have been concerns in the past about who controls what," Myers said. "I really think that is behind us. With the new leadership, the intent is let's do what is best for (Arizona)."

Ug, they want city funding for a parking garage? I really hope the City finally wises up and tells them to screw off. Tell them to park at the AZ Center garage, or on the street, or in the Garage Mahal or better yet, not at all. Take the LRT you dorks. We already have a surplus of parking spaces Downtown, we don't need to make things worse.

That is ridiculous. I have a feeling the City will help them finance a garage. Hope I am wrong but without a real effort to create more housing in downtown and along light rail for future workers, employers are going to argue that they need parking. It is too bad that the Concorde Eastridge project is the only new, dense and large housing being built in downtown at the moment.

I agree that there are too many parking spaces in our downtown. But unfortunately, Phoenix is still ruled by the car. I would much rather see parking structures than surface parking. And hopefuly, the construction of these parking structures begin to get rid of all the large surface lots that plague our downtown.

That being said, I think that if the city is helping to develop these structures, they should be held to higher standards. No all parking structures have to be as ugly as the ones we have. A great example of a good looking parking structure is 1111 Lincoln road in Miami Beach. It incorporates mix-use elements into parking, and is actualy very well designed.



The city, and us, should demand better design for parking structures that are asking for city funding.

Could not agree more. If Phoenix commissioned Architekton or Jones Studio, I'm sure either could come up with something pretty spectacular.

I agree, I'd like to see more garages like this one in Miami:



Not only does it have street facing retail but its quite literally green. It looks beautiful and also likely contributes less to the urban heat island. PHX could easily do something similar and we could do a more unique twist on the same idea where its covered in cacti & succulents. The garage over by the Science Center/Rosson House is kinda done in that way.

Unfortunately, the cliche that Phoenix is ruled by the car is used too often as an excuse for bad decisions. I agree with Hoover that Phoenix should take a stand and refuse to subsidize any more parking Downtown. While there are advantages to garages over surface lots, the best option is parallel parking on the street. Parallel parking doesn't present blank walls for entire blocks and offers a buffer between pedestrians and the street. In addition, if people park a few blocks from their destination and walk the rest of the way, they're more likely to discover and support businesses along the way. An nicely designed parking garage might be okay, but only if a rigorous analysis shows that the new construction will create a severe parking shortage. Otherwise, existing parking should be enough, along with nearby bike lanes, bus routes, and light rail.
