Case Studies
Spring Arbor Senior Living
The market for senior living communities – especially those with assisted living and memory care sections – remains highly competitive. Spring Arbor Senior Living was a regional senior living owner and operator with communities in Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina. When Foundry Commercial acquired Spring Arbor they recognized the important of proactive communications to help senior living communities maintain robust census levels and attract new residents.
Mixed Use and Retail Development
Any new development project requires vision and a healthy appetite for risk. This is especially true for developers looking to catalyze growth in underserved areas. A local developer had the dream to create a new mixed-use community that included a variety of retail, housing, and office spaces in an established and underserved community close to downtown Norfolk, VA.
Showcasing Hospitality Design
Glave and Holmes Architecture, a national-recognized architecture and design firm, wanted to grow its business in the hospitality sector. The firm had a strong team and good relationships but was looking for new opportunities to expand its reach with hotel and resort developers, owners, and operators, particularly boutique and high-end hospitality.
