The Challenge
A.R. Goudie is a long-term care residence owned by peopleCare with developable land surrounding the existing building. Senior Living Pro was asked to review the feasibility and architectural design for an Independent Supportive and Assisted Living residence to be co-located with a new expanded long-term care residence.
The Solution
Market feasibility and competitive review findings were utilized to establish a new suite mix and sizing, amenities, architectural program and fill projections. The Senior Living Pro study, conducted in Kitchener based on the primary market area of A.R. Goudie site, resulted in significant changes to the existing architectural plan, price and Proforma modeling as well as the operational service and planning discussions.
