Cromwell retirement community wraps $48M expansion

A senior living community in Cromwell says it has completed construction of 54 new residential apartments.

Covenant Living of Cromwell (formerly Covenant Village of Cromwell) broke ground on the approximately $48 million project at 52 Missionary Road approximately two years ago.

The project includes one and two-bedroom apartments and a new “town center” area with three dining venues, an art studio, wellness center and other shared amenities. The community now has 259 total units.

The Cromwell site is one of 17 across the country operated by Illinois-based not-for-profit Covenant Living Communities and Services, which is a ministry of the Evangelical Covenant Church.

Covenant said in late March that 65% of the new units had been sold as of that time.

The project was financed by tax-exempt bonds issued by the quasi-public Connecticut Health and Educational Facilities Authority.

Covenant’s development team included Middletown-based firms C.E. Floyd Co. and Dowley and Associates, Cheshire-based Milone & Macbroom, and others.
