A Boston-based general contractor is opening a new office in Orange County.
Suffolk Construction, which already has an office in downtown Los Angeles, christened its Newport Beach location. The new location is spearheaded by Stephen Green, a 31-year industry veteran who specializes in healthcare, life sciences, higher education, commercial, residential, gaming and entertainment sectors.
The Newport Beach office, according to a statement issued by Suffolk, will focus on healthcare projects in the Los Angeles-to-San Diego corridor.
“We’ve built the right team of local experts who understand this region and bring the specialized healthcare experience our clients need,” Green said in a statement.
Suffolk moved into its office at 100 Bayview Circle, Suite 4200, in the spring.
Suffolk opened its first Southern California office at 550 S. Hope St. in 1998.
National Firm Based in New England
Suffolk Construction was founded in 1982 by Chairman and CEO John Fish. The general contractor company has since grown to employ nearly 3,000 people and an annual revenue of more than $8 billion. Suffolk has offices in Boston, New York City, Miami, Tampa, Dallas, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Salt Lake City and Las Vegas, among other cities.
Some of Suffolk’s healthcare projects include White Plains Hospital in Westchester County, New York, Tampa General Hospital in Tampa, Gilead Life Sciences in Foster City, California, and Boston Children’s Hospital in Boston.
Other projects include 10 World Trade, a 634,000 office and lab building in Boston’s Seaport District, 3553 Whittier Boulevard, a modular apartment building in Los Angeles, and 400 Central Ave., a 46-floor, 301-unit condominium tower in Tampa.
Another eight healthcare projects are in the pipeline, including Be Well OC’s three-building campus at 7900 Marine Way, Irvine. The 74,800-square-foot campus is revitalizing the former Marine Corps Air Station El Toro base and would feature outpatient services, a crisis mental health building and behavioral health treatment center.
Dallas-based Harbert South Bay Partners LLC proposed to build a 281,000-square-foot state-licensed assisted living and memory care facility at 2120 Main St. in Huntington Beach. The proposed development would include 226 guest rooms and subterranean parking.
Healthcare employment in Orange County reached 176,000 jobs through March, per CBRE.
