Viva-LA-Warner-Center-CA

LOS ANGELES — Wellpointe has announced plans for the development of a new affordable seniors housing campus within the Warner Center master-planned district in Los Angeles. Wellpointe estimates a total investment of $2 billion in the project, which will be developed in four phases. A property-holding affiliate of Wellpointe acquired the 4.7-acre development site late last year from Parkview Financial.  Upon completion, Viva L.A. Warner Center will comprise four high-rise towers ranging from 34 to 42 stories. The 2.2 million-square-foot development will total 3,192 units and include 61,450 square feet of non-residential space.  “Viva represents our conviction that affordable housing, paired with assisted living services as needed, can be delivered at the scale and density that California’s aging population in core urban centers actually needs,” says George Kutnerian, co-founder and CEO of Wellpointe. “Despite the overwhelming need for a new model, senior living continues to be built out rather than up — even in dense urban areas — and quality is treated as incompatible with affordability. Viva rejects that premise and builds upon Wellpointe’s mission of democratizing access to quality housing and care for older adults — now through transit-oriented, high-density, community-serving urban social infrastructure.” Gensler is designing the project.

Spires at Berry College

By Hayden Spiess At first glance, mixing university students in their late teens and early 20s with senior living residents might seem too unconventional to succeed. “These are two completely different worlds,” concedes Andrew Carle, president of Carle Consulting. “You cannot find a bigger odd couple than bureaucratic universities focused on 20-year-olds and fast-moving senior living providers that are focused on 80-year-olds. Bringing those worlds together is hard.” Even so, the premise of university retirement communities (URCs) does exactly that, and Carle is one of the property type’s strongest proponents. More than 80 URCs are currently open throughout the U.S., according to UniversityRetirementCommunities.com, which is an online resource established and operated by Carle.  The proliferation of these niche properties marks a stark contrast from a few decades ago, when the first URCs began to pop up. Those first communities included Meadowood at Indiana University, which opened in 1983, and Green Hills at Iowa State, which was built in 1986.  Carle describes those two pioneering communities as “organically built” properties, rather than “intentionally built” URCs. “Most of the early ones were organically built,” explains Carle. “They didn’t even know what they were doing, frankly.”   As interest in senior living communities …
