A 207-unit luxury high-rise continuing care retirement community built on a two-acre site at the edge of downtown San Mateo. Residents purchase a membership in the facility, which includes a condominium interest in a fully equipped one- or two-bedroom residential unit. The project was designed to provide the luxury environment and services of a first-class hotel while offering a comprehensive health care program that includes a wellness program, a drop-in clinic, and the services of an on-site medical director. Each of the eight unit types is finished as a high-end condominium and includes Corian countertops, a stacked washer/dryer unit, spacious closets, and a balcony. The project, which targets affluent seniors, also maintains an assisted living wing of 20 private rooms that residents can move into temporarily if needed.
