Best residential care home design for Global Awards shortlisted
LOS ANGELES: The shortlist for the best retirement housing design has been declared.
Over 250 designs have been considered by the awards secretariat. One of the finalists in this category is shown below.
The Land and Environment Court granted approval for development of the $32.5m Belrose Manor facility, featuring a 25-bed dementia wing and ocean views, in October 2020.
The approval followed a lengthy saga, with an initial development application, which proposed to demolish a six-bedroom house at 181 Forest Way and replace it with the four-level facility, withdrawn in 2017.
The following year, the state government’s Sydney North Planning Panel rejected a subsequent application on the grounds of overdevelopment and height concerns.
The Global Award winner will be announced in December in London. (Globals)
