Crane app for Broadstone Portland. We're going to have a ton of cranes up at once a few months from now.

Two new senior living facilities adding density

One down in south Phoenix the other right at the north end of Melrose:https://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/...e-phoenix.html

Quote:
Foundation for Senior Living is planning two more senior housing projects in Phoenix, but experts say it's still not enough to keep up with the growing demand for affordable senior housing.

Plans call for building two communities in Phoenix that will total $25.3 million in development costs, said Tom Egan, president and CEO of FSL, a Catholic charity under the Diocese of Phoenix.

A 78-unit community called Acacia will be built at 615 W. Pierson St., while a 113-unit community called Roeser will be built at 446/454 E. Roeser Road, he said. Each project will cost about $13.3 million to build, he added.

Of its 20 existing senior housing properties statewide, four are in metro Phoenix.

The Arizona Department of Housing estimates there is a need of 165,000 affordable housing units across Arizona.

"We're talking about developing housing for people who make between 40% and 60% of the area median income," Egan said. Monthly rents for the new projects will be somewhere in the $500 to $700 range.

Egan's two new projects will total about 200 units, which doesn't come close to the needs, he said.

"It helps, but we're going to have to come up with another solution," Egan said. "A lot of people have to come together to find a bigger solution to close that gap."

Egan, who will be a panelist addressing affordability for the 11th annual AZ DealMakers event on Jan. 23, said the projects are financed using low income housing tax credits.

"The LIHTC program is a vehicle we have as a state to build affordable housing," Egan said.

These aren't subsidized housing properties, he said, which have very long wait lists before seniors can take advantage of those low cost housing options.

"Right now, we're seeing more seniors in our community getting displaced," Egan said. "If the rent keeps going up and the rent is beyond what they make, oftentimes they aren't in a position to earn more income."

Solterra Senior Living also has taken advantage of the LIHTC program, developing several senior housing communities in metro Phoenix during the past few years, said Greg Corns, director of development and partnerships for Scottsdale-based Solterra Senior Living.

"It makes a great deal of sense for companies looking to buy down their tax rate and at the same time provides a valuable asset to Arizona," Corns said. "From our perspective it provides the aging population the opportunity to live in top-shelf communities, receive care services at an affordable rate."
ans call for converting existing property in Tucson and in the White Mountains to senior housing communities, he said.

These new communities will be based on need, Corns said.

"When you go into a market and see there's a high number of individuals that are Medicaid members and there's not enough beds for these individuals, well maybe there's an opportunity to convert them," he said. "There's not enough inventory for aging seniors that are low income to find housing. If we don't do something in the next five years, we will face a crisis situation."
Not very big but the rendering of the Melrose one looks to be a good density filler.

Is Catholic Charities no longer occupying that building?

edit: never mind it's the old building behind the charities. This is good. More mixed housing is better, all the market rate apartments are the same as one another.

the contractor for the building at 3rd avenue and roosevelt put up signs on the fence, seems like that should mean construction is imminent.

I mentioned the other day there are contractor signs in front of the fence at 3rd ave and roosevelt, just looked up and a lot of permits were issued in the last 30 days. This one will be underway soon!

I rode my bike down Maryland Avenue this morning and noticed that Parkway Community Church is being demolished. Parkway was the last structure on the south side of Maryland just before reaching SR51, right next to the Roman Roads condominiums and Richardson's restaurant. Apparently, the church is going to be replaced with a multi-housing development known as "Madison Square." I don't have any details beyond that.

Landsea Homes. They bought another parcel in the neighborhood this year also.

41 lots where the church is, 13 lots at Ocotillo and 14th Street.

Thanks. That area on Ocotillo has been vacant for a while.

It's the old casita style apartments on the SWC of 14/Ocotillo. 13 lots there tells me it'll be similar density to what Watt Communities did on 16th and Ocotillo.

It has but they were still doing utility work. Just drove by this morning and they are no where close to vertical construction.

That one has been rumored for a while and most people in the neighborhood over there are excited, the old hotel has been a major hindrance on the neighborhood's improvement so it will be a huge positive to have even a boring apartment building there.

Agree completely, especially with the boutique hotel opening right next to it. Having a crummy old abandoned hotel right next door would turn people off

Eh. It's a rough rendering. I'm sure the real thing will look better. FWIW, I think Broadstone Osborn turned out OK compared to the rough renderings that were released prior to it's build. This looks similar. Probably appropriate for the location. Anything is better than that awful shell of a hotel.

Im ok with this but being right on Camelback it should at least have a couple units for retail. A coffee shop there would kill, a small convince store, anything with the amount of traffic there.
