DIGITAL RENDERING

The Watermark at St. Peters - St. Peters, MO Creating a Social Hub

The Watermark at St. Peters is a three-story Independent Living community in St. Peters, Missouri, a coveted suburb of St. Louis. A $3.6 million renovation completed in June 2022 transformed the building core, corridors, and amenity spaces into purposeful and engaging environments.

Conveniently located in the center of the community, the Club Room becomes a prominent attraction with numerous social opportunities. Opposite to the café is a relaxed fireplace lounge, mail hub, and access to the beautiful outdoor patio. Game tables and a baby grand piano ensure this will always be a popular destination, encouraging multigenerational entertainment of residents and their families. Centered under the skylight is a new two-sided banquette, one of several varied seating styles to choose from. The three-story atrium was redesigned to soften daylight transfer, while increased lighting levels throughout improve the lighting balance.

The community is proud to show off its new offerings to prospective families who remark that the space feels welcoming and open. Community partners are amazed at how the interiors have come to life. The executive director notes that the improvements “both enhance the lives of today’s residents and prepare for the residents of tomorrow.”
