Watermark Retirement Communities and Hines have partnered to develop a large, seven-story seniors housing community in Houston’s Greater Heights neighborhood. The community will include 222 units of independent living, assisted living and memory care, with rents starting between $3,500 and $5,500 per month for IL. There will also be a host of amenities, two whole floors of dedicated amenity space, in fact. The community will also be the tallest building in the neighborhood and will have views of the downtown skyline.  

This is Watermark’s fifth Élan property, which is the operator’s upscale brand. Other partners on the project include Munoz + Albin Architecture and Planning (the design architect), Looney & Associates (interior design for the common spaces), TBG Landscape Architects (the landscape architect) and Harvey Builders, the general contractor. Completion is set for January 2022.
