My impression is that it is hard to find a GK center and a CK center within a mile of each other, let alone in the same building or center. They seem to be in competition with each other. Just think of it as more choices for us!

Fair is fair. We have a Gammaknife Center of Oregon here in Portland, and across the Columbia River, in Vancouver, WA, they just opened a new Cyberknife facility at the Southwest Washington Medical Center. According to Google, its about an 11 mile drive. I bet they aren't the best of buddies, though.
