LIVE WELL SENIOR COTTAGES CELEBRATES KEY MILESTONES

(Vineland-NJ)—Andrew Jubelt, CEO of Live Well Senior Cottages, a New Jersey senior housing development firm, released the following statement today regarding Live Well Senior Cottages at Vineland, a groundbreaking retirement community that recently received approval in the City of Vineland.

“First, we would like to thank ARH Associates, Inc., (a multi-disciplined engineering firm based out of Hammonton, NJ), for assisting us throughout this process from use variance to final site plan approval in a timely fashion. Their depth of experience and problem-solving approach helped us realize our vision to create a unique form of independent senior housing with supportive services that sets a new standard not only in New Jersey, but throughout the Country. 

Secondly, on behalf of the entire project team, we would like to extend our collective thanks and appreciation to the City of Vineland and Mayor Anthony Fanucci for their vision in making this project a reality.  Their openness to innovation and demand for quality residential housing made this project location a natural fit.”

The ARH Project Team was led by Senior Associate Carolyn Feigin, PE, PP, and required the inclusion of several in-house subject matter experts including design staff, planning and permitting. 

The 24.6-acre development will comprise 130 senior living cottage style rental units within 80 buildings and offers personalized home care services and a central Community Center, all located at W. Sherman Avenue and S. Orchard Road. Live Well distinguishes itself from traditional Assisted Living and Age-Restricted Communities because it is more affordable and is specifically designed to appeal to more of the middle market for seniors rather than be limited exclusively to the more affluent.

Working with the City, ARH Associates Vice President of Planning Stuart Wiser, PP, AICP navigated and secured the Use Variance required to develop the site in the B-3 Business Zone which set the foundation to implement our progressive concept.

The Live Well design and planning initiative integrates individualized cottage-style homes with small community-centric neighborhoods, shared amenities, and flexible levels of home care. Each self-contained pocket neighborhood encourages social interaction and provides appropriate services for seniors transitioning to age-in-place living. A 5,000 square foot Clubhouse, a Dog Park, and a Children's Playground enhance the sense of community and shared experience.

Live Well Senior Cottages at Vineland resets the standard for resident experience in senior living focusing on lifestyle, services and lower cost to the residents. We look forward to showcasing this innovative community at Vineland with construction anticipated to commence in Summer of 2024.
