Front Porch Communities and Services plans to rebuild closed California community
Nonprofit senior living provider Front Porch Communities and Services announced the company received local government approval to rebuild Los Gatos Meadows, a community that closed for safety reasons in 2019.
The rebuilt community will include independent living and care services on a “modern campus” that lines up with the area’s future vision, replacing the community that was first built on the site in the 1970s.
“Rebuilding Los Gatos Meadows turns possibilities into realities,” said Sean Kelly, CEO of Front Porch Communities and Services. “We so appreciate that the Town Council saw what we’ve known – that Los Gatos Meadows was and will be again an integral asset for the people and Town of Los Gatos.”
The redesign effort includes upgraded units, larger public spaces, fire safety improvements, sustainability practices and expanded parking.
Construction is anticipated to start in early 2027 with a targeted reopening of Los Gatos Meadows in late 2029.
