Developers plan to break ground this month on a $75 million senior living facility in Kensington in a project the town\u2019s mayor called \u201cthe largest project the town has had in over 40 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 167,000-square-foot project at the intersection of Metropolitan Avenue and St. Paul Street will include 135 senior living apartments and a cafe, according to the developer, Virginia-based McCaffery.<\/p>\n

The project received final Planning Board approval in December. It includes a five-story building with 63 independent-living units, 43 assisted-living units for residents who need help with basic functions like dressing and bathing, and 29 memory-care units that will cater to residents with conditions such as dementia.<\/p>\n

A fitness center and ground-level kitchen, dining room, wine bar and game room are also in the plans.<\/p>\n

There will also be a courtyard that will have seating areas, walking paths and a water feature. The project will provide about 103 parking spaces, according to development plans.<\/p>\n

Construction is expected to be completed by early 2021 and is expected to generate 90 new jobs.<\/p>\n

The Kensington project is McCaffery\u2019s first senior housing project, according to a news release from the company.<\/p>\n
