NEW YORK: The four hundred and eleventh entry for the seniors housing Global Awards for 2015 has been received.
After years of planning, construction is underway on a mixed-use project in the Minneapolis Mill District that will be the first downtown to combine income-restricted rental apartments with senior housing.
Eagle Iron Partners, the master developer, will build a six-story building with 150 units and about 15,000 square feet of retail space next to a five-story, market-rate senior apartment building called Abiitan Mill City, which will be developed by Ecumen, a senior housing nonprofit, and have 151 rental units specifically for seniors, including independent living and memory care units.
It’ll also have a fitness center and restaurant that will be open to the public.
