The Project
It is fitting that the site chosen for this project was the
place from which most of the homes of the area where built
from. The Quarries of the Yanabieh with their distinctive
Blue coloured stones where not too long ago bustling with
our grandfathers, shipping away at the blue rock to built
the homes we all live in. And now, we the children, grand
and great grandchildren are coming a full circle and returning
to the birthplace of our homes to honour our parent with this
Rest Home.
This Property, donated By The Orthodox
Monastery of Saint Elias (Deir Mar Elias Shouwaya), will
soon be alive again with the sound of builders erecting a
monument of thanks to our parents.
The project will consist of a Service building where all the
main services will be housed, i.e. Administration, kitchen,
restaurant, clinics, parking, Physiotherapy centre, elevators,
etc…
Three main building will branch off the Service building which
will house the Boarding section; which include bedrooms, TV
and lunch rooms, nurse's stations, etc…
In addition to the main complex, four separate buildings will
be erected. These will house small studio apartments (one
or two bedrooms) to be leased for people who need the services
of the main facility (kitchen, laundry, recreational and medical
services), but at the same time require personal privacy.
A small clubhouse with a heated outdoor pool will also provide
extra activity for the home in addition to summer membership
to outside families.
The clubhouse and the Studios are fund generators for the
retirement home. The Bedrooms are all similar is sizes and
construction. 3 types of furnishings will be available:
- Suites for Single occupant,
- Twin for dual occupants,
- Quadruple for four occupants
