Senior living community adds three new buildings during campus expansion project
The challenge
St. Leonard’s Senior Living Community engaged Plante Moran Living Forward™ (PMLF) as owner’s representative during the design and construction of three facilities on their campus. The new development included the following:
- A 22,000-square-foot wellness center, featuring a hospitality center, pool, and restaurant
- A 74,000-square-foot memory support building
- A large new storage facility
- Extensive redesign and renovation of an existing facility, the Franciscan Care Center, to become the center hub of the campus
The solution
Throughout the multi-year process, PMLF kept all new design, development, and construction within a $22 million budget.
Our role grew throughout the process. PMLF helped St. Leonard manage the redesign and construction of a new campus road system as well as upgrades to the community’s existing 250 cottages and garden homes, 73 independent apartments, and 100 independent apartments. We also assisted with renovating a memory care unit to include a new chapel, administrative space, and therapy addition.
