Kaiser Permanente’s new Westminster Medical Offices is a $230 million, three-story, 132,000-square-foot outpatient building north of Denver, and the health system calls it its largest brick-and-mortar investment in Colorado since 2011. DPR Construction is the general contractor. Kaiser announced the groundbreaking on Oct. 9, 2026, and plans to open in 2028.
The building replaces the existing Westminster Medical Offices on Huron Street, which opened in 1976. The new one goes up just south of it, so the old clinic can keep seeing patients until the move.
Project Scope
The program is broad for a medical office building. Kaiser lists an outpatient surgery center with robotic surgery, urgent care with evening and weekend hours, primary and specialty care, OB-GYN, pediatrics, pharmacy, laboratory and medical imaging. Becker’s ASC reports the surgery center will be Kaiser’s third in the Denver metro and the urgent care its fifth in Colorado.
DPR is leaning hard on prefabrication. Scott Miller, the firm’s Mountain States leader, told Construction Dive that structural steel, exterior facades, interior spaces and MEP systems will all use prefabricated or modular components, an approach he called “especially valuable in healthcare environments.” Moving that work off site is meant to tighten the schedule and cut disruption next to a clinic that stays open throughout.
No architect or engineer of record has been named publicly, and Kaiser hasn’t given a ceremony date beyond the Oct. 9 announcement.
Why It Matters
Health systems keep shifting capital into outpatient care, and this project shows how far that’s gone. Kaiser’s biggest Colorado facility investment in 15 years isn’t a hospital. It’s a building that pulls surgery, imaging and urgent care into an ambulatory setting closer to where members live.
At roughly $1,740 a square foot, it isn’t cheap. The $230 million figure probably covers equipment, site work and the replacement logistics that Kaiser hasn’t broken out, but it’s still a high number for a three-story outpatient building.
The prefab claims are the part worth tracking. If DPR delivers a 2028 opening with this much of the building made off site, it’s a useful data point for every health system weighing modular MEP racks and panelized facades on mid-size outpatient work. If it slips, that’ll be worth knowing too.
