Project Overview
LEXINGTON, KY. Switzer Development has a long history with Bristol Group. When one of its major tenants, University of Kentucky Healthcare, needed a new surgery center on the campus of a former shopping mall, Switzer again turned to Bristol Group for its vertically-integrated approach. In a remarkable case study on adaptive reuse, Bristol Group had a few years earlier converted a former department store into a state-of-the art healthcare facility on the campus. Bristol Group’s design-manufacture-build method helped to repurpose a closed shopping mall into an economic development engine for the area. Switzer Development knew it could count on Bristol Group to provide the same innovative solution for the new surgery center. The results speak for themselves, as Bristol Group provided a design-manufacture-build solution for a 20,000 SF building that meets the client’s functional requirements and does so in with an innovative architectural design. Bristol Group did it all on an extraordinarily tight schedule that allowed the tenant to meet its demanding requirements from previously scheduled surgeries.
