Progress is taking shape at The Summit!
We know there have been delays, and at times construction progress may seem slow. But there is a lot happening across The Summit campus — and these latest drone photos give us a great bird’s-eye view of just how much is taking shape!
Memory Support continues to come together.
New roads and sidewalks are going in throughout campus.
Blue Ridge Commons now has stone on the exterior.
Aspen and Hickory Hybrid Homes, part of Phase 3, are beginning to take shape.
There’s still plenty of work ahead, but it’s exciting to see the progress happening across campus. We look forward to watching these new spaces come to life and sharing more updates along the way!
