Beacon Hill at Eastgate Grand Rapids, Michigan

apartments, a new commons building, and renovations to the existing assisted living and healthcare facilities. Beacon Hill quickly established itself as the leader in its market through the provision of fine dining and hospitality (opened in 2010).

Phase 2 quickly followed with the addition of 56 more independent living apartments, along with an auditorium, garden café, and other enriching amenities. Additionally, their dated nursing home was replaced with a boutique, 29-bed health care center (opened in 2017).

Greenbrier continued to collaborate with Beacon Hill on the development of a third phase (completed in 2022) of their repositioning, which included the purchase and demolition of an adjacent office building, making way for 26 high-end independent living apartments called the Vistas at Beacon Hill.

Phase 4 planning is currently underway, focused on replacing the original assisted living buildings with a vibrant new expansion. This next chapter will feature 101 new independent living residences, 48 assisted living units, and a variety of state-of-the-art dining venues and amenities. Demonstrating their deep commitment to residents, Beacon Hill’s leadership has made the significant financial decision to keep the original assisted living building open throughout construction, ensuring uninterrupted care during the transition. West End is currently in the design and marketing phase, with construction anticipated to begin in 2026. Click here to learn more about this exciting new development.
