UK-based infrastructure group Balfour Beatty has secured a lucrative contract in America.

The company has been selected as the construction manager for the first phase of a mixed-use senior housing community development in Florida.

Contracted by ZOM Senior Living, Balfour Beatty will develop a resort-style community with significant green space in close proximity to popular retail and dining options. The project is a venture between ZOM Senior Living and Liberty Senior Living. LS3P Architects and MSA Architects are providing design and architectural services for the project.

Wellington Green Senior Living will offer luxury rental housing in a variety of formats, including single-story villas with attached garages, three-story garden flats, and residences within a six-story building, attached directly to the main amenity building. The community's focal point will be a two-story, 65,000-square-foot clubhouse and amenity building, including multiple dining venues, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, spa, salon and wellness centre, billiards and cards room, and a theatre. Designed to include 424 units at full build-out, the first phase of Wellington Green Senior Living will include 267

"ZOM Senior Living and Liberty Senior Living are redefining the senior housing experience with this luxury rental community at Wellington Green, and Balfour Beatty is thrilled to be their partner in bringing this vision to reality," said Scott Skidelsky, president of Balfour Beatty's buildings operations in Florida. "We thrive on building unique, market-leading assets for our clients and Wellington Green will be a 'crown jewel' of senior living in Palm Beach County. ZOM continues to be a great partner to Balfour Beatty, this being our second project with ZOM in South Florida and our third project nationally. We look forward to pushing the boundaries of senior living in Florida."

Work will commence on Wellington Green in the first quarter of 2019.
