$40M Brightmore Senior Living Community in Ballantyne Breaks Ground

Liberty Senior Living has just broken ground on Brightmore of South
Charlotte, a $40 million senior living community located in the
Ballantyne-area of Charlotte, NC.

"We're thrilled to begin the first phase of development for Brightmore
of South Charlotte," stated Jerry L. Cooper, Director of Marketing and
Development. "Unlike some Charlotte-area senior living communities,
Brightmore of South Charlotte will be geared toward the vibrant,
active retiree and will offer the convenience of independent living,
assisted living and skilled nursing all on one campus."

The 230,000-square-foot luxury retirement community, which will be
located at 10021 Providence Road West, will offer seniors a full
continuum of lifestyle choices and a range of amenities, including
various dining venues, a market, beauty salon, fitness center and pool.

Brightmore of South Charlotte will also differ from other full-service
senior living communities by featuring only rental options and will
not require an initial entry fee to become a resident.

Construction of Brightmore of South Charlotte's health and
rehabilitation center, The Pavilion Health Center will begin this
month and is slated for completion in late 2013. Construction of
Brightmore of South Charlotte's independent living residences and The
Terrace at Brightmore, its licensed assisted living and memory care
center, will follow and are estimated to be completed in 2014.

To commemorate this occasion, Brightmore of South Charlotte made a
$5,000 contribution to help support Charlotte Rescue Mission's Dove's
Nest, which offers counseling and aid for women battling substance
abuse addiction, and their children. An official grand opening for the
new Dove's Nest facility will be held in September.

Tony Marciano, Executive Director of Charlotte Rescue Mission said,
"Through the generosity of Brightmore of South Charlotte, women whose
lives have been unraveled due to an addiction can bring hope not only
to themselves but also to their children."
