Pavilion 2 at Avera on Louise Campus

This new approximately 127,000 sq. ft. medical office building supports an impressive expansion of Avera’s gastroenterology services. Although the construction of the new building was focused on the first three floors, the project was designed with future growth in mind. If needed, the building's foundation and structural components are engineered to accommodate up to six stories of vertical expansion, with the possibility of a skywalk to connect the new facility to the existing campus. Built on a geopier deep foundation system, this new building features a structural steel frame with a combination of precast and curtainwall exterior finishes. One of the most distinctive elements of the project is an underground tunnel that connects the new clinic directly to Avera's existing building, improving access and patient flow across the medical campus. With the ground floor being dedicated to gastroenterology procedures and the second floor for the digestive health clinic, this project significantly enhances the availability and quality of digestive health care in the region. The new facility is part of a $245 million project that is supporting Avera’s mission to serve the growing needs of the Sioux Falls community and surrounding region.
