CLEVELAND: A not-for-profit is planning a major expansion, including a new 21-story high-rise elderly housing community.
The project would add 266 additional housing units for 350 new residents.
The not-for-profit currently has over 500 residents in four buildings that include nearly 500 independent and assisted-living apartments, as well as a 67-bed short-term skilled nursing facility.
The development’s proposed first phase would include 72 assisted-living apartments, with 48 units set aside for people with dementia and others who need memory care.
That phase also would have 50 additional apartments for retired Catholic priests and brothers and a community health center.
The second phase would feature the 21-story tower with 144 apartments, rented to older people who live independently.
