FORT WAYNE, IND. — Vermillion Development, a Chicago-based real estate firm, has opened Silver Birch Fort Wayne, an affordable seniors housing community in Fort Wayne. Design and engineering firm HED partnered on the project. The 97,000-square-foot community sits on 4.2 acres and features 119 units. The assisted living facility offers studio and one-bedroom units for older adults in need of supportive housing. Silver Birch Fort Wayne is the eighth facility opened by Silver Birch Living, which is the operational arm of Vermillion. The property is adjacent to a golf course, which was recently acquired by a nearby university to be repurposed as a fitness center.
