Methodist Hospital for Surgery

Methodist Hospital for Surgery is a 105,000 SF surgical hospital located on a busy North Dallas corridor. The hospital focuses on treating patients in need of highly-specialized spine and joint surgery and is the only dedicated orthopedics hospital of its kind in the area. The facility includes seven fully-equipped operating rooms, 32 private patient rooms, 10 outpatient treatment rooms, a diagnostic imaging suite (including CT and MRI), and physical therapy/rehabilitation areas. Methodist Hospital for Surgery is a joint venture partnership between area physicians, Methodist Health System and Nueterra Healthcare.

Rogers-O’Brien managed the entire construction process using BIM, resulting in more pre-fabricated systems, less rework, faster schedule, lower cost and a higher quality building delivered with a 4-month accelerated schedule.

The Methodist Hospital for Surgery received the AGC Texas Building Branch Outstanding Construction Award and the TEXO Distinguished Building Award.

Southern Methodist University Annette Caldwell Simmons Hall

Annette Caldwell Simmons Hall is a 56,000 SF facility on the campus of Southern Methodist University and is home to the School of Education and Human Development. The building includes the physiology of exercise and a biomechanical laboratory along with Dean’s offices and multiple classrooms. The structure is cast-in-place with a structural steel roof and slate tiles and masonry veneer. The project also recently received two awards by the American Subcontractors Association for “Outstanding Project Under $25M” and “Outstanding Project Team under $50M” — and is LEED Gold Certified.

Shops at Park Lane

The 33-acre open-air urban village of Park Lane, situated between the DART Park Lane light rail station and NorthPark Center, was constructed to balance the lifestyle functions of living, working, dining and shopping. The vision was to create an environment that would blend lifestyle and power retail with offices, condominium and rental apartments, resulting in a memorable gathering place for the community in a harmonious architectural setting. Due to its proximity to the nearby NorthPark Center, parking demand was met by consolidating surface parking for existing office buildings into a seven-level parking garage and constructing a pedestrian-oriented retail environment along newly created shopping streets.

Rogers-O’Brien was the lead contractor on this Joint Venture with The Beck Group.

The Shops at Legacy

The Shops at Legacy is an upscale, mixed-use development of retail shops, office buildings and residential units at the busy intersection of Legacy Road and Dallas Parkway. Rogers-O’Brien completed the phased construction of the shell and interior finish out of various retail, office and restaurants, as well as five parking garages totaling approximately 345,000 square feet.

Since The Shops at Legacy were operational when Rogers-O’Brien began work, the team worked diligently with the development team and retail store owners to implement a construction approach that did not disturb their business or the flow of traffic within the busy mixed-use development.

Texas Instruments DMOS Phase II

Texas Instruments, Inc. DMOS 5, Phase II, includes the construction of a three-story Computer Wafer Fabrication facility. The building is designed around a 65,000 SF clean room with support area of 455,000 SF for systems servicing the clean room function. Additionally, a five-story Administration Building of 120,000 SF was required for the administrative functions of the clean room. Also included is a chemical dock and a deionized water building.

This complex, totaling 650,000 SF is connected to an existing operating clean room facility – DMOS 5 Phase I and required a 12-month construction schedule. DMOS 5 Phase II is an addition to Phase I, which was also completed by Rogers-O’Brien.

The Women’s Museum

Rogers-O’Brien Construction completed restoration of “The Women’s Museum” for The Foundation for Women’s Resources, a private nonprofit organization located in Austin, Texas. The restoration won considerable recognition from a multitude of associations and from the state, including the Dallas Preservation Achievement Award, the Texas Building Branch-AGC Outstanding Construction Award, the QUOIN Summit Award and the ABC Excellence in Construction Award. The facility, built in 1910 as the State Fair Coliseum, now serves as a national museum focused solely on the historical achievements and contributions of women. Rogers-O’Brien was called upon to renovate the existing building (approximately 70,000 square feet) and to restore the facility’s fountains and other unique elements. Innovation programs intertwined throughout many areas of the restoration project in cooperation with the U.S. Parks Department and the Dallas Landmark Commission, and the Texas Historic Commission.

Aviall Headquarters and Distribution

Winner of an ABC Excellence in Construction Award, this immense building includes a data center, warehouse distribution area, manufacturing and shop area and hazardous material storage.

The exterior of the building includes 9¼ concrete tilt-wall panels, punched openings and a two-story curtain wall system. A unique architectural touch, freestanding concrete columns adorn the front of the building, supporting concrete spandrel panels with exterior ribbon glass. The project also included approximately 200,000 SF of concrete parking and loading docks as well as fully landscaped lawn areas.

Rogers-O’Brien surmounted numerous obstacles during the course of this project, including development of new infrastructure, design of hazardous materials storage rooms and meeting the owner’s requirement of early completion of the data center. St. Jude

Texas Regional Medical Center

This full-service hospital houses emergency department, a surgery wing, heart cath-lab, full diagnostics department containing MRI, CT-scanner, and general radiology, intensive care unit, patient beds, as well as laboratory, pharmacy, chapel and a full service cafeteria.

Seton Medical Center – Women’s Tower Expansion

The Women’s Tower Expansion is part of a multi-phase renovation and expansion at Seton Medical Center in Austin, Texas consisting of a six-story, 129,000 SF tower with tie-ins to eight floors of the existing building. The new tower includes 32 new post-partum rooms, three new nurse stations, two new nurseries and all the auxiliary rooms to support a fully functioning Women’s Center. 44,175 SF of renovation work includes four C-Section operation rooms, recovery rooms, waiting rooms, a new nursery and several new nurse stations throughout the second floor. Challenges to the project included the restrictions created by a tight, heavily sloped site situated between two fully operational facilities – a full-service hospital with 24-hour emergency room and helipad and a medical office building.

Rogers-O’Brien received an ABC Excellence in Construction Eagle Award and an AGC Outstanding Construction Award-Bldg 4 for outstanding work on this project.
