SARASOTA — Sunnyside Village in Sarasota held a groundbreaking Wednesday for an expansion project that's expected to cost about $20 million.

The senior living community will construct a new and expanded health, rehabilitation and memory care center. The center will add more private room accommodations for skilled nursing residents, according to a press release. It will also add an 18-apartment assisted living memory care center. 

The rehabilitation and therapy center will enlarge its space, adding more equipment and an indoor therapy pool. 

The 44,326-square-foot, two-story building will also include multiple living rooms, multi-purpose rooms and activities rooms as well as an outdoor veranda, balcony and courtyard. 

The project was designed by SFCS Architects. The general contractor is McIntyre, Elwell & Strammer. The new health and rehabilitation center is expected to be complete in summer 2019. The overall renovation of the project and memory care is expected to be complete in 2020.
