The four-story community expands the Amira portfolio to meet growing demand for senior living, the release states.

“Amira Corcoran reflects our long-term commitment to creating high-quality communities that respond to the evolving needs of older adults,” said Dave Young, vice president, senior living development, United Properties. “This project brings thoughtfully designed homes and meaningful amenities to a growing part of the Twin Cities, while reinforcing our focus on places that foster connection, independence and a strong sense of community.”

Amira Corcoran offers studio through three-bedroom apartment homes. The building features diverse amenities including a club room, fitness and yoga studios, a golf simulator, and an outdoor patio with a pool and hot tub.

The new assisted living center will bring the total of available beds to 24 from 16. Work started on the expansion project in 2025. The new project will include private rooms, shared living and dining areas, an open kitchen, activity spaces and wide hallways with a barrier-free design according to the community’s website.
