TRINITY WOODS
MILWAUKEE, WI
SCOPE Provided master planning, architectural, and construction services for a new 258,000 SF intergenerational housing community
COMPLETION 2021
OWNER School
Trinity Woods is an intergenerational housing community on the campus of Mount Mary University in Milwaukee. The project is the result of a partnership between the School Sisters of Notre Dame, Mount Mary University, and Milwaukee Catholic Home. PRA was brought on to lead design efforts for the 258,000 square foot community that houses 52 assisted living units, 90 independent living units, and 24 private family units for undergraduate single mothers. The facility will be a continuing care retirement community for aging sisters as well as other members of the community. The facility will also feature an early childhood development center for up to 100 children. Trinity woods was conceived to encourage serendipitous and supportive interactions between all occupants.
Exterior design elements of the community reflect the collegiate gothic style of the Mount Mary University Campus. Steep red gabled roofs with parapets are complimented by a material palette of stone, siding, and trim in warm gray tones to tie in with the existing campus. The interior design features a palette of wood, limestone, blue, and metal accents in a warm transitional style. Key public spaces, such as the chapel and dining room, feature artwork and stained glass from the Sister’s former campus to preserve their rich history.

LUTHER MANOR
WAUWATOSA, WI
SCOPE Long Range Master Planning & Multiple Phase Project List
COMPLETION 2019
OWNER Luther Manor, 4545 N 92nd Street, Wauwatosa, WI
Facing growth and staffing issues on an aging campus in need of modern updates, Luther Manor engaged PRA to provide Long Range Master Planning services. Built in the 1960’s, Luther Manor incorporated the whole continuum of care onto their campus. A decrease in their Skilled Nursing Facility staff and patients led to vacant beds and unutilized spaces.
Multiple additions were made over the years to the campus, but with no Master Plan in place, the campus was left with no long term vision. Luther Manor and PRA saw the opportunity to perform a “campus reset” that would answer the following questions:
• How to improve the quality of independent living?
• How to add dedicated Memory Care area?
• How to redistribute skilled nursing areas for best use?
• How to increase curb appeal in an outdated structure?
• How to increase parking and wayfinding on a campus with no long term plan?
• How to set the campus up with a long term plan for future growth and success?
A Multiple Phase Project List was the result of the Master Planning effort. Phase 1 projects include renovation of apartments to be more focused on independent living and increasing curb appeal and facility marketing through new exterior finishes.
Future phase projects include:
• Dedicated Memory Care space
• Dedicated Hospice space
• Renovating Assisted Living space
• Upgrading Rehab to be competitive with other rehab facilities
• Consolidating 3 front doors into one main front entry

COMPLETION 2021
OWNER Sprinkman Real Estate, 613 Williamson Street, Ste 202, Madison, WI 53703
Located on the site of the former historic The Hotel Washington, West Washington Place is a renovated mixed-use building consisting of 52-luxury apartments ranging from studios to 3-bedroom with 10,000 sq. ft. of commercial space on the first floor.
Nestled between two historic City of Madison landmarks, the design team was challenged with designing a building that seamlessly weaves into the existing fabric of the city. To accomplish this, the exterior integrates the use of brick and stone with classical design elements to be reminiscent of previous buildings on the site. This building is also located on a direct route to the State’s Capitol, so great consideration was taken to ensure the façade appropriately represented the City of Madison.
The interiors wanted are youthful and modern while also playing homage to The Hotel Washington. In the lobby, the distorted design of the carpet echoes elements of classic oriental rugs, while the porcelain tile has a repetitive pattern imitating vintage tin ceilings. Both the carpet and tile create a historic ambiance while remaining modern. A neutral color palette of white, gray, and black was also used to create a clean and fresh environment that emphasizes the modernity of the design.
The building incorporates a variety of amenities for residents including community spaces, two fitness studios, private meeting rooms, a dog wash station, and a rooftop deck with an indoor/outdoor fireplace offering generous views of the State’s Capitol building.

COMMUNITY OF BISHOPS BAY
MIDDLETON, WI
SCOPE Provided master planning services for a 10.5 acre site with 350 housing units
COMPLETION 2019
OWNER T. Wall Enterprises, 7609 Elmwood Ave., Ste. 209, Middleton, WI 53562
PRA is the Architect of Record for the Community of Bishops Bay, the 700-acre community development of dynamic neighborhoods and one of Wisconsin’s most innovative new home communities in the greater Madison metropolitan area. PRA will break ground in spring 2015 on the 10.5-acre “Back Nine” neighborhood as part of the Bishops Bay Master Plan.
Phase I of this project includes 350 housing units that will range from four-story apartment complexes with underground parking to two-story walk-up units. The housing developments will be traditionally designed and overlook a golf course and wooded scenery. The community will also include a clubhouse, pool, play area, and commercial space, which will be built during future phases.
MASTER PLANNING
BETHANY HOME
PRA conducted a feasibility study to determine whether to renovate the existing facility or to build a new campus on a new site. The result of the study was to remain on the current site through a combination of new construction and renovation. The existing Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) was renovated into a new 60-unit Community Based Residential Facility (CBRF).
LUTHERAN HOMES OF OCONOMOWOC
PRA developed a master plan for the comprehensive senior living community. The plan involved relocating their existing Health Center south of Wisconsin Avenue and connecting it to the existing Assisted Living Tower. The north side of the campus was then opened up for Independent Living and community services. A skywalk provides access between the north and south campus over Wisconsin Avenue.
GABLES OF GERMANTOWN
The Gables of Germantown campus was designed to create a high quality senior living community that allows residents to remain independent as they age. The “Germanesque” design reflects the architecture of authentic German villages. The campus consists of 22 cottage homes, an 48-unit residential care apartment complex (RCAC) and a 108-unit independent living apartment complex. A boulevard entry drive connects the two buildings, and the site’s landscaping provides a natural, park-like feel to the resort-style development.
THE LUTHERAN HOME
As part of a 25-year working relationship, we have planned and designed multiple spaces for The Lutheran Home. Most recently, we planned and designed two Memory Care Assisted Living buildings with 72 additional beds. Additionally, a new multipurpose room and commons space connects the new Memory Care to the rest of the campus.
NORTHPOINTE TERRACE
We created a master plan for the health and wellness campus at NorthPointe, a facility part of Beloit Health System. There is a 168,000 sf clinic, diagnostic facility, support spaces, health club and surgery center on the campus. We also designed a 24-unit assisted living facility that features its own dining room, activity room, wellness and therapy gym, beauty shop, and living areas.
RENNES GROUP
The existing Health Center on the Rennes Group DePere Campus was in need of updating, so PRA was retained to convert the facility from a medical model to a more “home-like” environment. PRA was also tasked with developing a master plan for the rest of the campus. The challenge was to expand the services of the facility and also expand parking on a very tight site.
ST. CAMILLUS
The multi-phase master plan to expand the facilities on the St. Camillus campus features a new assisted living facility, a Community House residence, and an Independent Living Tower and commons space.
CEDAR COMMUNITY
PRA was tasked with creating a master plan for Cedar Community’s 160-acre campus, which is adjacent to their existing Cedar Ridge campus in West Bend. The concept of the master plan was to create a direct connection from Cedar Ridge to a Town Center at the heart of the new campus. The first project constructed on this campus is a 60unit memory care community based residential facility (CBRF) featuring six, 10-unit households. Additional uses for the site beyond assisted living would include skilled nursing, clinic, retail, and housing.
SHOREHAVEN LIVING
Situated along the shores of Lac LaBelle, the Shorehaven Living Campus provides care at a variety of levels including skilled care, memory care, rehabilitation, assisted and independent living. The plan also involved relocating their existing Health Center south of Wisconsin Avenue and connecting it to the existing Assisted Living Tower. The north side of the campus was then opened up for Independent Living and community services. A skywalk provides access between the north and south campus over Wisconsin Avenue.
LINDENGROVE COMMUNITIES
LindenGrove Communities engaged PRA to design several renovations and an addition to their Waukesha campus. The three-phase project includes a 22-unit rehabilitation center, a 20-unit high acuity assisted living conversion, and a new Memory Care Community Based Residential Facility and Community building.
