Cedar Rapids Eyeing New Memory Care and Senior Housing
Cedar Rapids officials push for The Gardens and Grand Living developments to add 24 memory care, 60 assisted living and 18 future units plus 164 units across two facilities. Supported by 2.5 million in wages and 3.4 million in annual wages for 85 to 90 jobs, the projects aim for tax breaks and a 10 year tax revenue boost. Countywide demand grows amid aging population with 65 plus residents projected to rise.
