IRVING, TEXAS- A Catholic healthcare system with community hospitals, urgent care centers and physician clinics worldwide moved into its new purpose-built, global North Texas headquarters, further solidifying this part of the region as a corporate headquarters epicenter.
Christus Health moved into its headquarters in Irving, Texas, with the help of $4.9 million in city economic incentives, putting its 1,900 corporate employees in one location to help support its healthcare efforts spanning 600 locations in the southwest United States, Mexico and South America. This new office tower gives Christus Health a new home after the healthcare system moved its headquarters from Houston to Irving a decade ago. Irving touts itself as being "the headquarters of headquarters," with eight Fortune 500 companies calling the city their corporate home, including McKesson, Fluor Corp. and Kimberly-Clark.
In opening the facility last October, Christus Health President and CEO Ernie Sadau said the move to the new building is "so much more" than a new location. This project was chosen by a panel of local industry professionals as the winner of the 2024 CoStar Impact Award for commercial development of the year for Dallas-Fort Worth.
About the Project: The 15-story, 456,000-square-foot office building at 5101 N. O'Connor Blvd. includes a corporate living room, barista coffee area, fitness center with locks, a 400-seat corporate dining facility and a 600-seat conference center and training rooms. There are also outdoor terraces for employees.
What the Judges Said: "The project stimulates the regional economy through job creation and investment opportunities, leaving a lasting market on the community," said Steve Triolet, a senior vice president of research and forecasting for Partners Real Estate.
They Made It Happen: Fidelis Healthcare Partners, an affiliate of Fidelis Realty Partners, represented Christus Health in its real estate search. Kevin O'Neil and Mark Allyn of Fidelis Healthcare oversaw the project, along with Mark Fewin of Guidon Project Solutions. BOKA Powell is the project architect.
