Seniors housing developers compete for Global Award

trophy NEW YORK: The four hundred and forty-fifth entry for the seniors housing Global Awards 2016 has been received.

A “resort-style” assisted living and memory care center for senior citizens and people with dementia is coming to Indian Land, adding to a building boom in a busy part of upstate South Carolina.

The Blake at Edgewater should break ground in late 2016, Mississippi-based developer Cardinal Ventures said, in the Edgewater Commons development at Highway 521 and Highway 160. A “welcome center” will be built on the site first, and the facility is expected to open in early 2018.

The development will include 101 units, totaling 88,000 square feet. The assisted living units will include one- and two-bedroom apartments, and the dementia care units will include studio and one-bedroom units with a “home-like environment.” The facility will be staffed by registered nurses full-time, and will include restaurant-style daily dining for residents.
