[IMGCAP(1)]DALLAS-Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas and BremnerDuke, the healthcare development division of Indianapolis-based Duke Realty Corp., will undertake a $350-million expansion of the main campus to create the first dedicated cancer hospital in North Texas and the largest outpatient cancer center in the state.

The project, which breaks ground before the year ends, has been in planning and design stages for one year, according to Ed Bittner, BremnerDuke’s senior vice president of its South region. He tells GlobeSt.com that BremnerDuke will develop and own the 450,000-sf outpatient center, with Baylor leasing “a good portion” of the space. The nine-story crescent-shaped building will go up on a five-acre tract, now a surface parking lot at the corner of Hall and Worth streets.

[IMGCAP(2)]BremnerDuke’s building will be connected via a skywalk across Worth Street to the Baylor Charles A. Sammons Cancer Center, marking its 32nd year will be expanded by 120 beds to create the largest hospital of its type in North Texas. Chicago-based Perkins+Will’s Dallas team designed both components. Medco Construction of Dallas, a Baylor-affiliated general contractor, will build both structures. BremnerDuke’s team, being led by Bittner, includes Richard Couturier, John Huff and Mark Beach, vice presidents of development, leasing and construction, respectively.
