Building Features:
In accomplishing this building project, Roland Jonker will be retained as the Architect. Mr. Jonker brings a wealth of experience to this project having been involved in various senior home designs including Tollendale Village in Barrie and Holland Christian Homes in Brampton.
Located in a park-like setting, each building will be four or five stories high, with some overlooking the pond area. Approximately 400 suites will be developed in stages. In the first year of construction 100 suites will be built followed by another 100 units in the 2nd year, and so forth until the project is completed.
Design Features:
Architecturally, we envision offering a contemporary classic design with age-specific amenities that are both functional and designed to be aesthetically pleasing. For instance, the use of open spaces and natural light in common areas will create a spacious, inviting milieu and encourage interaction. A warm cozy room such as a fireside lounge would enhance the ambience as would a few nooks and crannies where one could sit, read or write quietly while still observing the hustle and bustle of the homes. The facility will offer such features as glare-free lighting, slip resistant flooring that is easy on the eyes, and supportive hand railings in hallways. All areas will be wheelchair accessible. Each building will feature a TV monitored security surveillance in the lobby and parking garage.
The suites will be designed to a maximum square feet possible according to allowable overall plans with one or two bedrooms. The suites will be specially equipped with lever door handles, sit-down showers, bathroom grab bars, higher toilets, emergency call features, individually controlled thermostat, and television access to various church services. Some suites will be equipped with laundry facility as well as laundry services on each floor. A storage area will be available in each suite. In addition, residents have the ability to retrofit their suite as their aging needs require with the prior consent of the Corporation. As part of the construction feature agreement, new residents will have access to extensive suite upgrades.
