MUKWONAGO, Wis. — McShane Construction Co. has been selected as the general contractor for Azura Mukwonago, a three-building, 72-unit assisted living and memory care community to be built in Mukwonago, roughly 30 miles southwest of Milwaukee. McShane is constructing the property on behalf of seniors housing developer and operator Azura Living.
Positioned on a 6.4-acre site, the property will feature two assisted living facilities and one memory care building. The single-story, wood-frame buildings’ exteriors will integrate full stone veneer masonry and Hardie board. There will also be a barn on-site.
Units will offer resilient flooring, ceramic tile bathrooms, quartz countertops, SMART cabinets and roller shades.
In addition to dining rooms, kitchens, community rooms, and sunrooms, amenities at the community will include a fitness area, spa and salon. Outdoor features will include a community garden, walking paths, putting greens, bocce ball courts and extensive courtyard amenities.
“Azura’s model offers a neighborhood-like atmosphere that is unique compared to traditional senior living residences, and we look forward to bringing its vision to life,” says Alison Gorham, vice president and director of Wisconsin operations at McShane.
Construction of Azura Mukwonago, which began in October, is scheduled for completion in December 2025. EUA is the project architect.
Family-owned and based in Milwaukee, Azura Living derives its name from the Latin word “azureus,” which means blue sky. Azura currently operates 15 memory care communities and two assisted living facilities throughout Wisconsin, according to the company’s website.
