Arlington, Texas. (January 17, 2024) — Fox Run Estates, a Holiday by Atria independent living community, has kicked off a new renovation project for capital upgrades in design and amenities. The upgrades are designed to transform the community’s appearance and function, all geared toward fostering the social connections that help older adults live life to the fullest. The upgrades are expected to be completed this spring.
When originally built, the layout for Holiday Fox Run Estates focused on community spaces to offer residents an enriching and engaging social life. Improvements for these social spaces are the focus of this renovation as even more older adults are seeking an active lifestyle during retirement. Residents will have more reasons to gather and enjoy the many benefits of a social community to their physical, cognitive, and emotional wellbeing.
One of the focuses of the renovation is to create an expanded fitness room to meet the needs of seniors working to maintain a more active lifestyle as they age. The game lounge, living room with library, atrium and dining room will also receive extensive renovations. Other improvements include added A/V capabilities in all common areas, exterior enhancements, and energy-efficient lighting.
“For us, this will feel like an ‘extreme makeover’ to create new and enhanced ways for our residents to stay active, build new friendships and enjoy what inspires them,” said Diane Lohrke, General Manager at Holiday Fox Run Estates. “We know that living in a vibrant, social community like ours can translate to greater well-being in older adults.”
Older adults living at senior living communities like Holiday Fox Run Estates are shown to be less vulnerable to declining health outcomes, as found in a recent study from NORC at the University of Chicago. The study highlights how social engagement, nutrition, access to fitness and other amenities like the ones found at Holiday Fox Run Estates are important factors for health outcomes of seniors.
Apartments will also get significant renovations like new lighting and luxury vinyl tile flooring; kitchenettes with new cabinets, sinks and counters; and upgraded bathrooms.
“Our renovations at Holiday by Atria communities nationwide are designed to meet the demands of America’s aging population, as well as provide working environments to attract and retain talented employees,” said Michael Mejia, Chief Operating Officer for Holiday by Atria. “The renovation of Holiday Fox Run Estates is part of our ongoing commitment to put our residents in position to live their best lives, now.”
