Ascalon Medical Office Park

Now under construction in Georgetown, Texas.

WHAT DOES Ascalon MEAN?

The legend behind Ascalon is one of the oldest and most universal in human culture: A healer and warrior acts courageously to save the vulnerable from danger. The healer and warrior is St. George. The danger is a dragon. And he used a lance called Ascalon to slay it.

Eric Visser, co-founder of Cerus Development, first encountered the image in Jerusalem, on the walls of the Church of the Nativity. Saint George appears on that fresco not as a symbol of a single faith or nation, but as a symbol shared across Eastern and Western Christianity, across the Middle East and Europe, across nearly 1,700 years of human experience.

What is the dragon? It depends on who you ask.

But for most people, the honest answer is the same: illness. The loss of health. The thing we fear most.

So Ascalon is a place for strength, healing, and the possibility of prevailing.

That spirit is alive in the architecture, the materials, the courtyard, and the art that comprise this special building.

ASCALON RENDERINGS:

Is Ascalon located in a prime location?

Yes. Ascalon sits at 4829 Williams Drive in Georgetown, Texas. That’s half a mile south of the main entrance to Sun City Texas, one of the largest active adult communities in the state. For providers who are trying to get further away from the IH-35 corridor to be closer to their patient base, Ascalon is uniquely positioned to serve the existing communities of west Georgetown, including the ever-growing Sun City community. Plus, more than 38,000 rooftops are planned for construction immediately to the west.

In other words, the patients are already here. 

These folks already drive seven or more miles east to the IH-35 corridor for care that should be available closer to home. Orthopedics. Cardiology. Oncology. Urology. Pulmonary medicine. Geriatric care. 

There's one more thing. Available sites for medical office development near Sun City are deed-restricted to a single health system and its affiliates. Ascalon is the only Class A medical office in the area that independent practices can call home.

HOW IS Ascalon Specifically BUILT FOR MEDICAL USES?

Ascalon is engineered from the ground up for clinical use. Not retrofitted. Not adapted. Built specifically for advanced medical uses.

  • Reinforced structure for imaging equipment: One wing of the upper floors is structurally reinforced to support diagnostic imaging equipment, including MRI machines that can weigh up to 40 tons. If your practice needs imaging, Ascalon is rated to support it.

  • Surgical and ambulatory care infrastructure: Ascalon will have generator pads and electrical infrastructure to support surgical centers and ambulatory care facilities that require backup power.

  • Medical gas, plumbing, and electrical capacity: Ascalon is designed for the heavier mechanical and electrical loads that clinical and laboratory uses demand.

  • A courtyard designed for healing: In the center of Ascalon, a peaceful landscaped courtyard including a waterfall will offer patients and building occupants a shaded place to enjoy the outdoors, but remain sheltered from the Texas sun throughout the day.

WHO IS BEHIND Ascalon?

  • Cerus Development

    Cerus Development, founded by Eric Visser and John Readyhough, is the team behind Ascalon.

    Every Cerus project is designed to be relevant not just at completion, but 20, 30 and 40 years after it was built.

    Ascalon is their most ambitious project yet. They waited years to thoroughly plan the project and develop it when the timing was right.

  • McKinney York Architects

    McKinney York Architects are the designers of Ascalon. The firm believes that great architecture engages people across the full breadth of their humanity—their minds, their hearts, and their senses. The late Al York, FAIA, who was a principal at McKinney York, understood this, so he was an early, passionate champion of Ascalon. He knew what the building was aiming to become and his vision shaped every element of it. Ascalon is among the last projects to bear his creative imprint. We are proud that it will stand as part of his legacy.

  • 2P Consultants

    The site engineering is led by 2P Consultants and principal Don Pool, P.E. His team guided Ascalon through entitlements with the City of Georgetown, Williamson County, and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.

  • Transwestern

    Marketing and leasing is led by Transwestern, the largest healthcare-dedicated real estate team in Central Texas, representing more than 2.1 million square feet of medical office space.
