Nauset Construction Corp. has broken ground on a 72,000 sf healthcare facility in Danvers, Mass. for College Street Partners, an advisory and development firm specializing exclusively in healthcare real estate.
The $20 million project, which will be known as the Hathorne Hill Rehabilitation Center, began initial site work in August, with construction scheduled to be completed by December 2012. College Street officials expect the center to be able to serve patients and residents by the summer of 2013.
The building itself will feature a personalized model of care developed by JSA and SunBridge that embraces a shift in healthcare culture. The center will feature three distinct “neighborhoods” that will accommodate up to 40 patients each. The neighborhood settings showcase home-like amenities such as fireplaces, with access to outdoor spaces and attractive courtyard settings. BD+C
