Construction is underway for Brightview Arlington, a new senior living community located on Hospital Rd. The $13.8 million project is being developed by Shelter Development of Baltimore, MD and will be operated by Brightview Senior Living. Pro Con Inc of Manchester, N.H. is the project architect and construction manager for the community, which will be the sixth Brightview community in the state.
Brightview Arlington will have 90 units including 60 apartments for assisted living and 30 apartments for Alzheimer's and dementia care. The apartments, which are all under one roof, will offer the residents a variety of floor plans and care options. Screened porches off the public areas will provide residents with views of the surrounding area.
The 4-story, 68,691 s/f senior living community will offer a social environment where housekeeping, dining, transportation, and maintenance are provided. Plans call for the community to have a dining room, a private dining room, a café, wellness/fitness center, activities room, beauty/barber salon, library/media room and outdoor patios.
The building's exterior will feature cement siding and a stone façade. Covered parking for 38 vehicles will be available beneath the building with elevator access for residents and a natural stone patio and decorative pergolas will enhance the exterior courtyard.
Pro Con began site work on Brightview Arlington in November 2012 and has scheduled a January 2014 completion date for the project.
