The Cascades Senior Living

Shoreview, Minnesota

This 105-unit catered living building will be owned and managed by Southview Senior Living. The project is sited on the edge of an affluent suburb and will be marketed both to affluent and middle income residents alike. The building, therefore, is a balance between cost-effective structure and layout, the long-term vision of lasting materials and efficient mechanical systems, coupled with high-end interiors at the main lobby for great curb appeal.

This site has seen four previous housing schemes by various developers, one of which was approved through the city council. The goal of the entire catered-living development team was to retain the footprint and vertical outline of the previous condominium development but to completely change the use and the image of the building. The development team worked with the neighbors, who originally opposed any development on the site, to create a project that was responsive to their concerns while meeting the needs of its clients and developer.
