The Verde at Peachtree is a new 60-acre master-planned wellness campus in Mesquite, Texas that will serve the health and well-being of the 700,000 people who live within 30 minutes of the development’s planned location.

At full build-out the development will comprise a $250+ million patient centered medical campus. The project is designed to function as a walkable village with a 25+ acre amenity center that follows the banks of a creek. The amenity center will include a series of healing gardens, walking trails, a hotel and conference center, a fitness center, and a senior living community.

The first phase of the project will include the creation of over 15 acres and up to 600,000 sf of medical inpatient, outpatient, and physician office facilities. Currently, final planning is underway to begin site work, mass grading, and infrastructure improvements necessary to tie Peachtree Road with an internal traffic circulation grid.

Verde Center at Peachtree is being developed through a partnership between Ryan Companies US, Inc., Medical Campus Group, Lang and Company, and the Peachtree Foundation, with development financing being supplemented by financial incentives provided by the State of Texas and the City of Mesquite.
