Friendsview Breaks Ground on $124 Million Campus Expansion

Friendsview Expansion

Friendsview broke ground on a new $124 Million expansion project yesterday morning that will add new independent living apartments and cottage duplexes, as well as additional common areas, and an updated health center.

Friendsview is a Type A, entrance-fee-based continuing care retirement community located in Newberg, OR. The retirement community is deeply rooted in Quaker values, with a focus on enriching the lives of its residents and their families, team members, and the larger community. As a result, the organization has brought purposeful living to over three generations of seniors since its inception in 1961.

The expansion and redevelopment consists of three notable additions to the Friendsview campus. The new Springbrook Meadows North neighborhood will include 14 duplex buildings that will house 28 new entrance-fee independent living cottage duplexes and an expansion to the community center. 

Sutton Terrace at University Village will be constructed on the main campus and will feature a new five-story building housing 96 new entrance-fee independent living apartments and 96 under-building parking spaces.

Lastly, the Charles Beals Plaza will be constructed in two phases to reduce the disruption to current residents who will not need to move until Phase I is completed. The new building will be a four-story structure featuring 79 residential care units and new administrative areas. The plaza will replace the existing Charles Beals Health Center. 

The expansion is slated for completion in May 2023. Other development team members include Greystone, LRS Architects, Pence Construction Inc., and Mennonite Health Services Consulting. Anstey Hodge Advertising Group is pleased to be the advertising and marketing partner for Friendsview retirement community as they continue to grow and expand.
