Navos Mental Health Solutions celebrated the grand opening of the first floor of its 46,888-square-foot, three-story Mental Health and Wellness Center at 1210 SW 136th St. in Burien.

Three phases of construction have been completed, including sitework, core and shell, and interior build-out of the first floor. Phases four and five will begin later this year, including the interior build-out of floors two and three and a new freestanding community center.

The project will target LEED gold certification.

The center combines therapy, primary health care, employment training and support services.
