September 25, 2009

Dan Miranda, President, HSA Commercial Real Estate, and John Wilson, President, HSA PrimeCare, announced that HSA PrimeCare has signed a long-term agreement with SIlver Cross Hospital to develop and own a 56,000-square-foot medical office buliding in New Lenox, IL., to be called the Silver Cross Health Center and Professional Building. The new medical office building already is over 90% pre-leased.

The new facility will be part of Silver Cross Hospital Campus, located just west of the new I-355 extension at the intersection of Route 6 and North Clinton Street in the heart of New Lenox in Chicago's southwest suburbs. Located near a 600,000-square-foot replacement hospital being constructed by Silver Cross, the two-story medical office is designed to accommodate contemporary medical technology. Pre-leased tenants will assume occupancy in August 2009, when construction is scheduled for completion.

"Our partnership with Silver Cross Hospital will provide new opportunities to serve the residents of this fast-growing areal of Will County," said Miranda, underscoring the economic benefits the new medical campus is expected to bring to the residents of New Lenox and surrounding areas. "The completion of the I-355 extension will spur a tremendous amount of growth, bringing with it an increased need for state-of-the-art medical facilities such as this one."

"HSA PrimeCare is pleased to include Silver Cross in our growing list of premier hospital partners in the Midwest," said Wilson.

An aggressive pre-leasing was launched during the initial planning stages of the project. Under the leadership of Rober Titzer, Executive Vice President, HSA COmmercial Real Estate, tenants have signed leases for more than 47,425 square feet of space in the new medical office buliding and enabled the project to move forward.
