Trinity Terrace plans to launch construction of the 23-story River Tower, November 2014. The construction is estimated to take about two years, according to the Fort Worth Business Press.
This is the second major expansion since the City Tower was built in 2009 to go with the original Terrace Tower, built 31 years ago.
The River Tower will provide space for 79 independent living apartments ranging from 1,450 square feet to 3,300 square feet.
There will also be 12 penthouses on three levels, a memory care wing, 17 assisted living apartments and a restaurant.
Extensions from the Terrace Tower hospital and assisted living floors will also be included in the new tower.
The amenities of the towers are a strong allure for most people, which led to 70 percent capacity of the 79 independent living apartments.
The contractor is Manhattan Construction, who built the Texas Rangers Globe Life Park in Arlington and several other buildings in Fort Worth.
As the River Tower is going up, Trinity Terrace is also undergoing some changes.
They are converting all of the previously semi-private hospital rooms to private rooms, and a new bistro is opening in the place of the game room. -Lexi Johnson
