Juniper Communities added two more properties to its portfolio, which now numbers 23 communities in Pennsylvania, Colorado, Florida and New Jersey. Both new additions are located in Lakewood, Colorado, about 10 miles from downtown Denver, and join Juniper’s three other communities in the metro area.

One community was built in 2008 with 65 assisted living and 42 memory care units, while the larger community has 118 assisted living and 19 memory care units, and was built in 1999. The new management contracts give New Jersey-based Juniper scale in the state and enables them to pilot additional ancillary services in the Denver area.
