Life’s Garden Renovation Includes a Modernized Exterior Entrance
At the end of October 2018, Life’s Garden community in Sunnyvale, CA completed its $65-million-dollar redevelopment that started in 2016. The renovation touched every aspect of the community from new fixtures and finishes in all units, improved mobility features throughout the property, installation of drought tolerant landscaping, and an expansion of the management office. The 208-unit building was originally constructed in 1974 to serve seniors 62 and older. To continue that mission, the project took additional steps to provide residents the opportunity to age in place on the premise. The property now has improved ADA parking closer to the building, new cane detection curbs at overhead protruding stairs and widened outdoor walkways to accommodate wheelchairs. Due to the scale of the project and the comprehensive renovation, construction occurred over 8 phases requiring the temporary relocation of more than 200 residents.
Life’s Garden grand re-opening is scheduled for January 10, 2019.
