Initial Approval and/or Recommendation

Amended PDP/SIP

History- Project Location

All Saints, a Catholic Charities Company, purchased this site in 2003.  All Saint’s vision for this property was to create a Catholic based retirement community.  The site lies both on the east side and west side of Commerce drive, adjacent to the Bishop O’Connor Center and across Watts Road from the Princeton Club west.

Since 2003, the following has been developed on site:

Infrastructure, consisting of the extension of Commerce Drive and the construction of Highview Drive and the extension of Plaza Drive,

            All Saints Retirement Center, a 144 Unit apartment building,

            All Saints Assisted Living a 58 unit assisted living and memory care facility,

            Hillside Estates, a 12 unit condominium building, and

            All Saints Cottages, two, free standing, duplex buildings.

In 2004 zoning was approved for 108 units of age restricted condo and multi-family under on the lands east of Commerce Drive.  To date, only Hillside Estates, a 12 unit has been constructed in this area. 

Vision- Project Description

The current vision for this property is to develop the remaining land as a true Continuum of Care Residential Community (CCRC).  In lieu of the 108 units west of Commerce, previously proposed and zoned, we are developing the following:

             A 4 Story Apartment building consisting of 48 units of Service Enhanced apartments,

             A 2 story Assisted living facility consisting of 63 units,

 A future 40-48 bed Skilled Nursing facility.

 The services to support and create a CCRC consisting of a dining area, a café/bistro,      commercial kitchen, exercise/wellness center, Chapel, activity area, and associated  appropriate retail support.

 A connection to the existing 144 unit facility via a skywalk will be made.
