The LaSalle Group is announcing its plan to build a 26,000-square-foot, $10.2 million memory care assisted living community. The center will be located at 351 Lily Cache Lane.

“With the help of local banks, we have been able to expand in the Chicagoland area, and serve more families struggling with caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s or dementia. The local community needs our high level of services, and we are excited to bring it our family approach to memory care.”

The project will create about 200 jobs, from construction to operations. 

“We know there is a true demand for this type of specialized care from our expert staff,” said Jason Dupont, Director of Finance, The LaSalle Group.  “We are grateful for the support from local Village of Bolingbrook officials.  Our partnership with them will allow us to be a successful part of Bolingbrook.”

The community is expected to open during the third quarter of 2013.
