Fox Run at Orchard Park Begins Construction on 53-Acre Lifecare Community
Western New York’s newest senior Lifecare community will open in the Fall of 2007.
Orchard Park, NY (PRWEB) May 24, 2006 -- Fox Run at Orchard Park (www.foxrunorchardpark.com), a Lifecare Retirement Community dedicated to providing active seniors the freedom to enjoy a full array of lifestyle enhancements, announced today that construction has begun on its 53-acre site located at the southeast corner of Route 20-A and California Road. Fox Run, the latest of only a handful of Lifecare communities in all of New York state, expects construction to be completed by the Fall of 2007.
LP Ciminelli, Inc. will be handling the construction of the community, which will offer 150 independent apartments, 30 independent cottages, 51 enriched apartments and 50 skilled-nursing units.
Fox Run will have 45,000 square feet of community space that will include; a great room with fireplace and hearth; a fitness center with indoor swimming pool and spa; a café; a pub offering billiards and a card room; an event center; a library with a computer center, fine dining; lounges and gathering areas; a gift shop; a hair salon and barber; a private dining room for entertaining; a workshop for woodworking, lapidary and metal crafts; a greenhouse and on-site postal and banking services.
“We are excited to begin construction on a community that will offer local seniors the finest Lifecare, location and lifestyle in all of Western New York,” said Christina M. Abt, director of Marketing for Fox Run at Orchard Park. “As we move towards the grand opening, we look forward to continuing our active role in the community and accepting deposits on the limited apartments that are still available.”
To be recognized as a Lifecare Community, Fox Run has met very strict, financially-sound and highly-regulated criteria established by the New York State Department of Health. As a result, once residents submit the Fox Run entrance fee, they are guaranteed on-site healthcare services, for as long as they need, with no additional fees.
The construction of Fox Run will have an estimated $78 million impact on Erie County, and result in the creation of almost 150 jobs. Once the Lifecare community opens its doors, it will have a projected $26.5 million impact on Erie County annually and create 250 new jobs in the area.
