New senior living developments are enhancing the lifestyle of seniors across the U.S.
Across the U.S., several new senior living communities are being established, enhancing options for independent living, assisted living, and memory care. Notable openings include Tallgrass Creek in Overland Park, Kansas; Bellara Senior Living in Hayward, California; Cedarhurst of Wentzville in Missouri; and Goshen Memory Care in West Chester, Pennsylvania. These facilities are designed to cater to varying needs and lifestyles, offering amenities that promote an enriching and comfortable living environment for seniors. This trend highlights the growing commitment to providing quality care and vibrant community spaces for the aging population.
In the heart of Overland Park, Kansas, a shiny new building is taking shape at the Tallgrass Creek Senior Living campus. Thanks to a partnership between Brinkmann Constructors and Erickson Senior Living, this project marks a significant expansion that will make life even sweeter for the residents. Once completed, the new structure will be the fifth residential building in this vibrant community.
The facility is set to offer 89 cozy units constructed with elegant wood framing over a solid podium deck, and it will feature convenient below-grade parking. With the assistance of the talented architects at Lantz-Boggio Architects, this innovative project is sure to provide a comfortable and stylish living environment for all its future residents.
Meanwhile, over in downtown Hayward, California, excitement is in the air as Integral Senior Living has officially opened the luxurious Bellara Senior Living community. Spanning an impressive 191,842 square feet, this five-story marvel boasts 157 residences tailored for independent living, assisted living, and memory care—perfect for a variety of needs.
Mark your calendars for April 10, because that’s when Bellara will hold its grand opening ceremony, showcasing stunning layouts from studio apartments to spacious two-bedroom units. Not only does this community offer comfortable living spaces, but it also emphasizes Hayward’s vision for a more walkable urban core, aligning perfectly with the city’s downtown specific plan.
The delightful amenities of Bellara include a chic bistro, an elegant restaurant-style dining experience, a modern fitness center, a glamorous theater, and a cozy salon and barbershop. For those who appreciate the arts, there’s also an art room and an activity room for engaging classes and hobbies. The design leans towards a mid-century modern vibe, paired with warm natural textures—making it a place that feels like home.
Residents can enjoy the beautiful outdoors in a stunning 15,000 square-foot courtyard, featuring a relaxing bocce court, a fire pit for cozy gatherings, a peaceful pergola, and even a Zen garden for reflection and tranquility.
Jumping over to Wentzville, Missouri, the newest addition to the senior living landscape is Cedarhurst of Wentzville. This community offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care options to cater to different lifestyles and care needs.
The Cedarhurst of Wentzville includes a total of 133 units—comprised of 65 independent living units, 47 assisted living units, and 21 memory care apartments. The impressive assortment of amenities includes a movie theater for film buffs, landscaped courtyards for outdoor enjoyment, and even a pickleball court for those ready to get active and make new friends.
Last but certainly not least, in West Chester, Pennsylvania, residents have a new option for memory care with the grand opening of Goshen Memory Care residences, part of Barclay Friends and the broader Kendal Corp.. These specially designed memory care units comprise 24 apartments, specifically created to meet the growing demand for dementia care in the West Chester area.
Constructed at a cost of $3.3 million— financed through $1.8 million in reserves and a $1.5 million capital campaign—these new residences are a welcome addition to the community, offering comfort and specialized care for those in need.
With these exciting developments across the country, it’s clear that creating enriching environments for our senior population is a growing priority. Families and loved ones can take comfort in knowing that these vibrant communities are enhancing the lives of seniors every day.
