St. Camillus officials celebrated the start of construction earlier this month for a new 15-story independent living building on its Wauwatosa, Wis., campus.
According to an article in Biztimes.com, the new East Residence building will connect to the existing St. Camillus campus and will include 168 independent living apartment units, an art gallery, theater, wellness center, and chapel.
Reporter Lauren Anderson writes: “St. Camillus scaled back initial plans for the tower project following objections from community members over its proposed height. Previous proposals called for a 21-story, and later, an 18-story tower. It’s the second phase of St. Camillus’ recent expansion. Phase one, which included a 72-unit assisted living building specializing in dementia care and a 50-unit Jesuit community house for the Order of St. Camillus, was completed in late 2018.”
