Maintenance on the property, made up of four buildings set around a large, lovely lake, had been deferred. Programs for its senior residents were minimal. Throughout the community, renovation includes new roofs, concrete repair, and exterior repainting. Aesthetic improvements include new railings and apartment entry doors, entry canopies, new signage, additional landscaping, new hallway carpeting, and much more. The clubhouse is slated for a complete overhaul, and two new community rooms will be created.
Much additional work is planned.
Most of the rehab work involves the conversion of 196 units, which currently share kitchens and entryways, into freestanding apartments. These apartments are being completely gutted and rebuilt with new floor plans that include separate entrances and new kitchens. Large windows and patios or balconettes will be created in the units that do not currently have these features. Already, Lake Delray residents have begun to see positive change that extends beyond home repair. And there's lots more on the way.
