Veterinary projects in and near Arlington
The Arlington projects are two general animal hospitals and a veterinary ophthalmology practice. North of Arlington we added on to and remodeled Brown Trail Animal Hospital in Bedford and built Urban Trails Animal Hospital in North Richland Hills.
Building in Arlington
Our three Arlington veterinary projects show the range of the work. A general animal hospital needs exam rooms, treatment, surgery, radiology, wards, and often boarding and an outdoor yard, all arranged so that staff can move animals without crossing the lobby. A specialty practice such as Animal Eye Clinic is closer to a human specialty office, planned around exam rooms, diagnostic equipment, and surgery.
The sites differ too. West Abram Street is in central Arlington, West Sublett Road is in south Arlington, and the Interstate 20 frontage is a highway location. A freestanding hospital on its own lot has site work, parking, and drainage to resolve. A suite does not, but it has a landlord and neighbors.
For a new building or an addition, the city path usually runs from plat to site plan to building permit. A finish-out or renovation goes straight to the building permit. Our guide to veterinary clinic design and construction covers zoning and the Texas approvals. Either way the job ends with inspections and a certificate of occupancy. S&I schedules these steps from the start and confirms early that the zoning allows a veterinary use, with boarding if you want it.
Common questions
Has Structures and Interiors built veterinary hospitals in Arlington?
Yes. We built Arlington Veterinary Center on West Abram Street and Richter Animal Hospital on West Sublett Road from the ground up, and we renovated Animal Eye Clinic on the Interstate 20 frontage road. North of Arlington, we have animal hospitals in Bedford and North Richland Hills.
How is a veterinary specialty practice different from a general animal hospital?
A general animal hospital needs exam rooms, treatment, surgery, radiology, wards, and often boarding and an outdoor yard, arranged so staff can move animals without crossing the lobby. A specialty practice such as Animal Eye Clinic is closer to a human specialty office, planned around exam rooms, diagnostic equipment, and surgery.
Should I check zoning before choosing a site in Arlington?
Yes. Whether a veterinary use is allowed, and whether boarding is allowed with it, depends on the zoning of the property. Confirm both early, before a purchase or a lease is final.
