A previously vacant lot is on its way to being home to Creekview Apartments, a new 22,000-square-foot affordable senior living apartment complex at 5615 Liberty St., in Richmond, Illinois.
Novak Construction has site work underway for the new development that will serve low income seniors in need of secure housing. It is situated adjacent to a walking trail and will feature services focused on health and wellness for seniors 55 and older.
The building will have 25 accessible units with four, two-bedroom and 21 one-bedroom units, a computer lab, a library, community room and an on-site property management office.
“Concierge amenities” – transportation services, case management, medical screenings, health and fitness resources will be available as well. A natural wetlands buffer and generous landscaping will provide for an environmentally-friendly outdoor setting. Project completion is slated for year-end 2016.
Those that attended the Aug. 26 groundbreaking event included: 32nd District State Senator, Pamela Althoff; Christine Moran from the Illinois Housing Development Authority, Village of Richmond President, Peter Koenig; David Gottlieb, Executive Director – Full Circle Communities.
