Westbrook, ME – Construction crews are hard at work framing Stroudwater Lodge Senior Living Community in Westbrook. Construction manager, PROCON of Manchester, N.H., teamed up on the project with the developer, Northbridge Companies of Burlington, Mass., and The Sandy River Company of Portland, Maine. Gawron Turgeon Architects of Scarborough designed the 95-apartment senior living community.
Preliminary sitework began in November 2015, followed by the foundation placement that was completed in December. Currently, exterior framing is about 90% finished, and work crews are halfway through the interior framework.

Stroudwater Lodge offers residents a new standard of living for the next generation of seniors, with numerous onsite amenities for their convenience. The three-story community features upscale one- and two-bedroom apartments with the option of independent or assisted living. Residents may enjoy a theater, art studio, salon and barber shop, café, pub, outdoor patio, brain gym with touch screen technology, and sunroom.
The 90,848sf community is part of the Stroudwater Landing campus and adjacent to Avita of Stroudwater that opened in 2013. Stroudwater and Avita will cover the full spectrum of senior living needs to include specialized memory care. Together, the multiliving communities will function as part of the larger Westbrook community with common spaces to support and connect with local events.

Wendy Nowokunski, Northbridge Companies President, said, “Our senior living communities are about enriching the lives of older adults and their families while being a vital resource to the surrounding community. Whenever possible, we plan to source food from farms in the area, allowing us to engage community suppliers. In turn, this connects us to and strengthens the neighboring economy.” She added, “Northbridge owns two other senior living communities in Brunswick and Wells, ME. The three communities will generate 285 jobs in the state of Maine.”
Senior housing is one of the most active segments of the multifamily housing market according to a 2015 U.S. Real Estate Industry Outlook Report. Independent living is ranked as the top trending portion of that market. Stroudwater Lodge and its sister communities provide customized senior living options with the added bonus of convenient onsite amenities that directly address that high demand.
Northbridge Companies’ goal is to serve the many diverse needs and desires of today’s senior. Their company mission is to create living environments and innovative programs that encourage freedom, offer lifestyle choices, and provide necessary services to live life to the fullest. They thoughtfully develop, own, and manage quality senior living communities throughout New England, from independent to assisted living and memory care residences.
