Steve Delson, president of DBN, says that in addition toproviding medical facilities that are tailored to the healthcareprofessionals who will occupy them, the project will also providelocally based medical services to the area's population. "Residentswill no longer have to travel to neighboring communities for theirhealthcare needs," Delson comments.

The 78,000-sf phase that is now under way will consist of twotwo-story buildings totaling 35,000 sf and 38,000 sf, withindividual units ranging from 1,500 sf. According to Delson, whilethe Hemet/San Jacinto Valley has achieved record population growth,the demand for both medical office space and practitioners hasoutpaced the existing supply and practices that serve SanJacinto.

Parkside Medical Center is located on the corner of Palm andEsplanade avenues, adjacent to Valleywide Regional Park and minutesfrom the Hemet Valley Hospital. Units within the project, which isslated for completion in the second half of 2008, are beingmarketed by Jim Nadal and Braden Berkley of Grubb and Ellis.
