Elevate Senior Living Breaks Ground on 55,000 SF Community in Clearwater, Florida

by Jeff Shaw

CLEARWATER, Fla. — Elevate Senior Living has broken ground on an independent living, assisted living and memory care community in the Tampa beach suburb of Clearwater.

According to Elevate, more than 22 percent of Clearwater residents are seniors, and the percentage is expected to climb. Meanwhile, more than 14 million seniors in need of senior living services cannot afford what is currently being offered. As a result, the 55,000-square-foot community is meant to help serve the middle market.

Elevate Senior Living at Clearwater will consist of six unique households that will offer eight independent living suites and 16 assisted living and memory care suites each for a total of 144 units. Each household will share a kitchen and meeting spaces.

The monthly, all-inclusive fee for assisted living will start at $3,500 a month. This includes a full calendar of programming and activities to enrich the lives of the residents who call the community home. All residents and staff of Elevate will remain actively involved in the greater community through volunteerism.

Elevate Senior Living plans to break ground on 11 communities nationwide over the course of the next five years. The Clearwater location is the first one in development.

“We’re excited to break ground not just on a building but on a new concept to senior living,” said Elevate partner and CEO of Safepoint Senior Living Bryn Wesch. “Together, we’ll develop affordable communities that offer clean air, pure water, good nutrition, safe surroundings and a vibrant approach to aging.”

Elevate has partnered with Texas-based HKS Architects and St. Louis-based general contractor ARCO Senior Living Multi-Family to execute the project. Construction is scheduled for completion in spring of 2023.
