Ambitious Medical and Innovation Campus Moving Forward in Phoenix Area

Development plans were announced to build a $762 million multi-purpose campus — including a life science and innovation center, a sports and science academy, and a “SportsTainment District” — on a 52-acre site adjacent to the Copper Sky Regional Park in the town of Maricopa, south of Phoenix.

S3 Biotech is planning a five-year project to be built in three phases totaling more than 2.5 million square feet. The first phase will include a 51,000 square foot, 3-story emergency hospital, a 108,000 square foot outpatient surgery center, a 150-room hotel, a 7-story residential building and a physical therapy center.

S3 Biotech has a five year timetable to build out in three phases. The remaining phases will include a health and sports psychology center, life science innovation center and a sports and science academy.

The project is expected to create over 10,000 construction jobs and generate $300 million in economic development.
