Medical office projects carry a different set of demands than a standard commercial build—equipment infrastructure, code requirements specific to clinical use, and a tenant that needs to start seeing patients on a fixed timeline. 70 Thrive Drive is a strong example of how Blackstone Development and Construction approaches those challenges, delivering specialized healthcare facilities with precision, efficiency, and long-term value.

The Project
Located in Lehi, Utah, 70 Thrive Drive is an approximately 15,000-square-foot medical office building delivered by Blackstone Development and Construction as the General Contractor.
Project Details
Project Name: 70 Thrive Drive Medical Office Building
Location: Lehi, Utah
Scope: General Contractor | 15,000 SF
Timeline: Completed Q2 2024
Client: Healthcare Partners LLC
Designed to support modern healthcare delivery, the facility provides high-quality medical office space for multiple specialty practices while maintaining the flexibility required for future growth.
The Challenge
The goal was to develop a modern, efficient 15,000-square-foot medical office facility capable of accommodating multiple specialty practices while maintaining strict healthcare compliance standards and creating a welcoming environment for both patients and providers.
Healthcare construction demands far more than a standard commercial build. Every decision—from infrastructure and building systems to patient circulation and regulatory compliance—must support safe, efficient, and reliable medical operations from day one.
Our Approach
Working through our Preconstruction and General Contracting process, our team collaborated closely with healthcare stakeholders throughout the project.
Our approach included:
Coordinating with healthcare stakeholders throughout planning and construction.
Designing flexible, modular office spaces that can adapt to multiple specialty practices.
Implementing advanced HVAC systems to meet healthcare performance requirements.
Integrating infection control protocols into the construction process.
Optimizing patient flow to improve both operational efficiency and the overall patient experience.
Maintaining proactive project management to keep the project on schedule while navigating complex regulatory requirements.
This collaborative process allowed the project team to anticipate challenges early, maintain quality throughout construction, and deliver a facility ready for immediate operation.
The Result
The project was successfully completed in Q2 2024, delivering a fully operational medical office building that exceeded tenant expectations.
Key outcomes included:
Fully operational 15,000 SF medical office facility
Delivered as scheduled
Zero compliance issues upon completion
Designed to accommodate multiple specialty medical practices
Established as a benchmark for future healthcare construction projects in the region
The completed building now serves healthcare providers with a modern, compliant, and efficient environment designed to support quality patient care for years to come.
Why It Matters
Medical office buildings are more than commercial structures—they are environments built to support patient care, healthcare professionals, and specialized medical operations. From regulatory compliance and infrastructure coordination to long-term operational efficiency, every detail matters.
Projects like 70 Thrive Drive demonstrate why Blackstone Development and Construction specializes in medical office and retail development. By combining thoughtful planning, technical expertise, and disciplined project management, we help owners deliver facilities that perform from the day they open.
