Gilbert's Banner Gateway Medical Center campus is getting a new cancer hospital in late 2011.

This new cancer center is made possible by a partnership between Banner Health and the University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center.

This will undoubtably be a big boost for the city of Gilbert's economy and repuation as a whole. The center will feature 76 patient beds on two floors inside Banner Gateway with a 120,000 square-foot cancer outpatient center.

To quote Majoy Steve Berman, "This center will bring in people from all over the world."

Banner Gateway has plans for future expansion of the 60 acre site to occomodate three towers with 450 hospital beds as well as room for expansion as needed for the cancer center.

This future growth and economic stability of Gilbert is looking good. This should be reflected in the stability of the housing market for years to come. Gilbert is truly headed in the right direction with this and other recent commercial developments along the SanTan freeway.
