The new Rockwall Medical Office Building Campus Master Plan for Schuler Development includes a multi-tract land development bringing a holistic idea supporting active lifestyles while creating an inviting medical campus in the southwest sector of the city. Three major planning concepts helped inform the design solution: 1) Create an experiential pathway: How can we stitch together multiple sites across multiple roads and provide one cohesive solution? 2) Provide a place of gathering: How can we identify program components and site amenities help create a center for activity and overall health? And, 3) Introduce a community of wellness and connectivity: How can we draw medical professionals to the new residential component of the Rockwall wellness center?

The design solution includes a total of 218,000 gross square feet spanning three separate multiple land tracts totaling 15.94 acres. Proposed planning includes multiple buildings allowing for conservative growth and expansion while creating a campus-like feel. Careful attention was given to public outdoor space in between building structures reinforcing community and gathering spaces for public activities. The multi-use program concept includes 158,000 sf dedicated to medical office building programs and another 60,000 sf of mid-rise high-end residential units. Lastly, a park pavilion and public boardwalk is nestled in between site areas A and B providing a focal and pivot point for neighborhood festivals, community wellness events, food trucks and other family oriented activities.
