Big San Jose medical offices project reaches key approval milestone

SAN JOSE — A project to develop new medical offices in San Jose near Good Samaritan Hospital, a proposal that could upgrade medical services in the area, has reached a key city approval milestone.

Two big medical office buildings and a new parking garage are being planned for 2505 and 2577 Good Samaritan Drive in the southwest quadrant of San Jose, according to documents on file with city planners.

Each office building would total 156,800 square feet, for a combined 313,600 square feet, the city documents show.

This project is near but is different from a separate proposal by Good Samaritan officials to replace the huge but aging hospital with a modern medical center on a large site to the east.

Cilker Henderson Properties, a real estate firm, has proposed this major redevelopment of an existing site.

The project would be built in phases. The first phase would consist of one of the two six-story medical office buildings and a parking garage with 1,092 parking spaces. A 140-space surface lot would also be added, creating 1,232 spaces total.

The project’s second phase would be the other six-story medical office building.

The precise timeline to complete an open the two office buildings wasn’t immediately known.

The proposal has reached a key milestone, since it’s slated to receive a final city review at a San Jose Planning Director’s Hearing on June 5.

The project’s first phase would demolish seven small buildings on the 2505 Samaritan Drive site to clear the way for the new medical office building and the parking garage.

“Construction on phase one will commence as soon as permits can be obtained, and after the permit development process is completed,” Cilker Henderson stated in a planning document.
