Montecillo Preparing for Senior Housing

EPT Land Communities has submitted a zoning application to City Council to change to Smart Code Zone for a new senior housing building. The Retreat at Montecillo will be a multi-story building with design that is in line with the four building development The Venue at Montecillo that is currently under construction along Mesa. It will have 150 senior-only units.

A September story from El Paso Inc. disclosed that construction would begin within six months, the sixth month being March. City Council will most likely vote on 2/21 to approve the zoning change and give the green light for the project to move forward.
Montecillo is a 293 acre smart code urban village that will cost $777-million to build out and will include 2,500 apartments and almost 500 homes and town homes. The development will also have commercial space, parks, schools, and civic areas.
