Covenant Place II

Covenant Place II was designed first and foremost with the residents’ needs in mind. The redevelopment plan was designed to replace the functionally obsolete building with new, energy-efficient buildings and apartments to better serve residents and the broader community. The new building includes space for property management, commercial space for a physical therapy practice and medical suite, and a senior lifestyle center that services all Covenant Place campus residents and residents living in the surrounding community.

The senior lifestyle center includes a café with a demonstration kitchen that promotes residents’ involvement in the community, gathering spaces with lounge seating, classrooms, an exercise room, multipurpose space for community events and administration offices.

The universal design allows ease-of-use by residents with a broad range of housing and accessibility needs. Room features include visual alerts for doorbells, smoke detectors for those who are hard-of-hearing, and adequate cabinets and storage within reach range for residents using wheelchairs.
