Fairview Ridges’ 26-acre campus underwent a major $60 million expansion and renovation that included a new, 130,000 square foot medical office building, an adjoining four-level, 475-stall parking ramp, a series of three additions to the hospital itself, and a skyway connecting the hospital and the new office building. The largest of the additions was the 23,000-square-foot, two-story expansion on the south end of the facility, which will provide the second-story skyway connection. Its exterior is constructed of glass and tan precast architectural panels and features dark brown brick, as well as the same stone veneer utilized for the hospital expansion. The parking ramp also features tan precast accents


MG McGrath Architectural Glass & Glazing worked with the project team on the new addition, fabricating and installing EFCO Aluminum Champagne finish, 2 ½” x 7 ½” Aluminum Curtainwall, 2” Head Receptor for 1 1/2” deflection (3/4” up and down), 2” x 6” Store Front for punched openings, Medium Stile Aluminum Doors, Stanley Automatic Sliding Doors, 1” OA Bronze Solarban 60 Insulated Glass, 1” OA Solarban 60/Spandrel Insulated Glass, 12 Lights of 90-minute Rated Lights for Doors, ¼” Clear Tempered for Non-Rated Doors, and 36 lineal feet of ½” Guard Rail

McGrath didn’t just show us what the next steps were, they took them with us. The project came out better than we imagined because they were involved.
