Portland, Ore.
Banfield, The Pet Hospital , broke ground in October 2004 on its $25-million headquarters in Portland, Ore. The 225,000-sf facility will be a two-story structure constructed over a sub-grade parking garage. Sited on 5.5 acres, the project includes plans for a two-acre off-leash dog park open to the public. Banfield's headquarters, which will replace its current facility, will house 300 employees and is slated to open in December 2005. Banfield is the nation's largest private veterinary practice with over 400 full service pet hospitals.
