Description
St. Rita Square, an upper middle income, urban senior living apartment community on Milwaukee’s Lower East Side, continues the Capri Communities’ mission of “enriching the lives of residents through service and commitment to family and community.”
Through a longstanding relationship with the Catholic Diocese, Capri purchased the aging St. Rita Church campus for $1. In return, Capri agreed to build a new church along with a senior living community, and then sell the church back to the Diocese for the same price.
With the demolition of the existing church, school, convent, and two residential buildings, the site provided the space needed for 118 units of independent living, memory care, and assisted living. The project preserves history and paves the way for a new chapter and promising future for the community and parish.
