Trillium Woods senior living scheduled to open in Plymouth in 2015 BY SUE WEBBER CONTRIBUTING WRITER The ultimate in luxury living and amenities for people age 60 and above will open in Plymouth in 2015. The first phase of Trillium Woods, at 5855 Cheshire Parkway, will offer 209 independent living homes (including 14 twin homes). The second phase will include 150 more independent living units. Construction is underway, with movein expected in late summer to early fall 2015. Amenities will include a convenience store, postal area for mailing, onsite banking, fitness center offering personalized exercise plans, library, chapel, woodworking center, auditorium, restaurant serving meals to suit dietary

needs, café, cocktail lounge, housekeeping and laundry services, spa and salon, and underground parking. Pets are welcome. Concierge and valet services will be available 24/7 and will assist with scheduling transportation. A preferred choice dining program will offer cooked-from-scratch foods prepared by a professional chef. In addition to an onsite Minute Clinic, the piece de resistance will be an on-site medical facility where licensed professionals will provide a range of health care options, including short-term recuperative care, assisted living, long-term skilled nursing and memory care. The first phase of the medical facility will accommodate 44 patients in the care center. Up to 90 patients will be accommodated when the second phase is completed.

The Trillium Woods Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) will allow residents to move from independent living to any of the varied levels of health care, as needed, at no additional cost. “People who like life care are planners; they like to be in control,” said Katie Kubinski, marketing director at Trillium Woods. “This is a peace of mind plan. People want to know where they will get their services, and they want to be in control of who will provide their care.” Vicky Lansky, who already has secured a unit in the Trillium Woods development, formerly had a townhouse in Excelsior and an office in Deephaven. She now lives with her husband on the 16th floor of a high-rise near Lake Cal-

houn in Minneapolis. “We saw the ads for Trillium Woods and thought it sounded like the type of place we’d like to live in, but we weren’t in a real hurry to move,” Lansky said. “We like it here [near Lake Calhoun] a lot; it’s beautiful. But it’s not a real community, and we are social people. We’re trying to take things easy and enjoy things more.” They liked the sound of the plans for Trillium Woods, she said. “We’ll be happy to get back on a grassy main floor,” Lansky said. “We don’t see squirrels or bugs now.” The 14 floor plans at Trillium Woods range from 788 square feet to 2,057 square feet.
