Sixty years after its founding in 1964, Saint Therese has opened a new senior living community in Corcoran, MN, a growing city in the west metro.

With Saint Therese of Corcoran, the nonprofit organization now has four communities in the Twin Cities and one in Monroe, MI.

A “Labor of Love”

Saint Therese of Corcoran opened on Monday, Sept. 16, welcoming its first residents into the independent living apartments. More than 55 additional families will be moving in over the next two months.

“We are so excited to welcome the residents into this beautiful, new community,” said Craig Abbott, president and CEO of Saint Therese. “Creating Saint Therese of Corcoran has been a labor of love for everyone involved and we couldn’t be happier to be able to open our doors to the residents and the larger Corcoran community. This city is expanding rapidly, and we’re honored to be able to provide senior care and services to this growing population.”

Community Details

The community features 99 apartments in Independent Living, 34 apartments in Assisted Living and 20 in Memory Care. Assisted Living will open in November and Memory Care will be completed in late December.

In addition to the most current apartment designs, Saint Therese of Corcoran will include a wellness center, warm water pool, a variety of dining experiences, library, golf simulator, theatre, outdoor amphitheater, woodworking shop, and a stunning chapel with stained glass windows designed by a local artist.

The Saint Therese community is the first development in what will become the City of Corcoran’s Town Center. Pope Design Group is the architect on the project and the general contractor is CBS Construction Services.
