The Waterford, part of Lifespace Communities, Inc., represents the pinnacle of senior living – With over 40 years in the business, Lifespace has been at the forefront of creating beautiful spaces for seniors to thrive and celebrate life.
WGI’s multidisciplinary involvement in this project emphasizes our mutual commitment to excellence and our dedication to transforming the community into a model of care and casual elegance.
A Vision Realized
The extensive $200 million redevelopment project at The Waterford is more than just an upgrade; it’s a re-imagination of senior living.
Expanding on healthcare offerings to provide residents with a full continuum of care, the endeavor includes the addition of 92 Independent Living apartments equipped with enhanced assisted living and memory care services. The Waterford’s revitalized campus offers a vibrant, active lifestyle for residents, with amenities and spaces designed to cater to diverse health needs.
Innovative Spaces for Every Resident
The redevelopment brings a host of new and improved amenities designed to enhance the resident experience.
Memory Care Gardens have been thoughtfully integrated into the new Memory Care residences, ensuring a serene and supportive environment for those with cognitive impairments. Additionally, accessible outdoor and rooftop amenities, along with substantial landscape enhancements, provide spaces for relaxation, recreation, and socialization.
WGI’s comprehensive approach ensured that every aspect of the community was designed with the residents in mind. From the new active spaces to the re-imagined existing facilities, The Waterford offers its residents a new lease on life, promoting wellness and engagement at every turn.
WGI’s Role: A Multidisciplinary Masterpiece
WGI’s pivotal role in the success of The Waterford’s redevelopment was highlighted by our mission – to create a cost-effective and comprehensive site solution that met various jurisdiction requirements while enhancing the overall resident experience. As such, our team of experienced professionals provided full design services for Lifespace Communities, working in close collaboration with the architecture team from THW Design.
Seamless Integration of Services
Our multidisciplinary expertise allowed us to deliver a cohesive and functional site plan, incorporating civil engineering, landscape architecture, structural engineering, and MEP services.
One of the standout features of our involvement was the innovative rooftop amenity design atop the new garage structure. This space was meticulously planned and executed, offering residents a unique outdoor environment.
The landscape architecture team also designed various activity programs throughout the property, each with its own character. Highlights include a grand arrival area adorned with accent pavers and formal palm trees, a memory garden enclosed by colorful tropical plantings, and three private courtyards with meandering pathways formed by ornamental grasses. Additionally, a re-imagined waterfront walking experience surrounds the new storm retention area, providing a tranquil setting for residents to enjoy nature.
A New Era of Senior Living
The Waterford Campus Redevelopment in Juno Beach stands as a testament to Lifespace Communities’ dedication to enhancing the lives of seniors.
Through innovative design and thoughtful planning, WGI has helped create a community where residents can thrive, regardless of their health needs. This project not only elevates the standard of senior living but also sets a new benchmark for future developments.
At WGI, we are truly proud to have played a role in this transformative journey, bringing our multidisciplinary approach to life and making a lasting impact on the community. The Waterford now offers its residents an unparalleled living experience, combining care, elegance, and vibrant living spaces in one exceptional campus.
