SUNSET SENIOR COMMUNITIES WATERFORD PLACE

SUNSET SENIOR COMMUNITIES THE COVE AT WATERFORD PLACE JENISON, MICHIGAN

In the first two phases of development for Waterford Place, senior residential living was provided in a multi-level apartment style building. With site planning the remaining property, there was a desire to look at offering a new housing type on campus. The Pocket Neighborhood concept came to the forefront as a way to cluster residents around a green space in close proximity to one another. The concept hits the sweet spot of independent residential living with closeness of being in a tight-knit community. The Cove has 20 villa units and is nestled between the lakefront and the larger Waterford Place building. Residents can enjoy all of the amenities and dining services available in the main building, and enjoy relationships with friends throughout the entire campus. Each of the 1,400 square foot villa units is designed with senior-friendly features, including no steps, vibrate finishes, full luxury kitchens, two bedrooms, and an attached two car garage. Units have ample daylighting with surrounding windows, fireplaces, and plenty of porch space to sit and enjoy the neighborhood.

ATRIA GRAPEVINE GRAPEVINE, TEXAS

It was determined by the Atria Group that their twenty-year-old facility located in Grapevine, Texas, required refreshing and modernization to achieve the goals of the organization: to give the community an inviting atmosphere for residents and potential new clients. A major component of the Atria Grapevine project was the “Life Guidance Area”, a space in the community that specifically catered to Alzheimer’s patients. All design elements were incorporated in the space to enhance the experience for the residents; this included the research and implementation of bright colors for stimulation, open corridors, a prominent nurse’s office, and built in memory boxes at each entrance door. Other features included the addition of a visiting physician’s office, relocation of the anytime cafè, and upgrades to the activity room, employee lounge, nurses/ medication room, private dining, and individual units. Exterior upgrades included the addition of a traditional southern style built-in BBQ pit, enlargement of the dining terrace, new circulation, outdoor lighting, new courtyard and service area, as well as a large, freestanding gazebo with roof. Hobbs+Black also coordinated the major landscaping upgrades to the property.

ATRIA KINGHAVEN RIVERVIEW, MICHIGAN

When new senior living communities began appearing in the area, Atria determined the need for a major series of improvements in order to solidify their competitive advantage. The renovated community boasts numerous upgrades. The addition of a porte-cochere creates a welcoming entrance that adds comfort and ease for those who need assistance entering and exiting vehicles. The facade was refreshed, and the public patio was redone in coordination with walkways and outdoor lighting to create an accessible and comfortable space. The interior received a dramatic transformation with renovations to the lobby, public corridors, and dining areas, with reconfiguration of offices. The business development offices were moved to the front entrance of the building, adjacent to the discovery area, where prospective residents research the community in order to create a strategically efficient welcoming space. New millwork that meets ADA standards, bright and modern finishes, and new lighting were also introduced.

AMERICAN HOUSE AT COTTAGE GROSSE POINTE, MICHIGAN

American House, a company specializing in senior living communities, has developed an assisted and independent living community in Grosse Pointe, Michigan, located within the existing Henry Ford Cottage Hospital. The campus is conveniently located within the historic and desirable community of Grosse Pointe, and functions as an integral part of the core commercial and retail district. The existing building plan, which features Tudor design, surrounds an exterior courtyard and provides abundant natural light throughout the community. For the American House community, the second and third floors were re-purposed to accommodate 30 assisted living units, 10 memory care units, and 38 independent living units. Independent living comprises the entire second floor; assisted living and memory care occupy the third. A key component of this community is the arranging of the floors into “neighborhood” spaces. This design allows for small staff and living zones, to ensure quality care and resident comfort. Integrated into the “neighborhoods” are open community spaces, which further encourage a welcoming atmosphere. The memory care unit is configured differently to support the specialized needs of the residents. It features a walking flow for circulation, and separate community and dining spaces. Henry Ford Health System continues to operate as a clinical outpatient facility on the first floor of the building, in addition to providing support to the American House resident community. In order to ensure that the two facilities are not confused, entrances, drop-off areas, and patient populations are separated.
