FRANKLINVILLE — On August 14, Hanks Expansion begins to take shape By Mark Kolada GREENSBORO — It is hard to believe
that one year has passed since WhiteStone: A Masonic and Eastern Community completed its exciting transformation of the Linville Admin- istration building into a first-rate clubhouse. The new clubhouse features a library, activity room, resident store, game room, lounge, marketing and administrative suites, and a new on-grade entry now without stairs. In addition to the rave reviews from residents, staff, and visitors for its southern comfort feel in its new surroundings, WhiteStone is also garnering national attention for its remodel/renovation work. Long Term Living magazine recently awarded
the Greensboro retirement community with a Best in Category award for common space as a result of recent renovations. They cited trans- forming the Linville administration building into "The New Front Door and Clubhouse," which now serves as a central location for resi- dents to interact and gather as a community. Long Term Living received more than 200 sub- missions for its third annual remodel/renovation contest. The submissions were judged by design- ers, architects, educators, researchers, providers, and culture change specialists. The finalists were then posted to the website for online voting in which the project with the highest vote receiving the Best in Category Award. David Kane, LCS Development Design Manager, Des Moines, Iowa, along with AG Architecture of Wauwa- tosa, Wisconsin led the innovative design. In addition to the magazine award, White-
Stone has also recently been named a final- ist in the 2012 National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) 50+ Housing Awards in
the Best Repositioning category. The awards are sponsored by Lowes and will be given out at the NAHB International Builders' Show on February 9 in Orlando, Florida where finalists will learn whether than have won gold, silver, or innovation award. The next phase of the community's expan-
sion, which broke ground in April of 2011, is the completion of the fellowship hall, bistro, and arts and crafts studio within the next few months. After that will come the 46-unit Independent Living apartment complex in the spring. Next, the renovated dining room, kitchen, and rotunda lounge are to be completed by early summer. Residents and staff have enjoyed the daily ex- citement of watching the new structures being built over the past several months, even though they have had to adjust to inconveniences such as limited parking, transitional dining facilities, and a temporary walkway connecting build- ings. But, the proverbial "light at the end of the tunnel" is clearly shining brighter every day as the completion of construction draws near. The community will then begin focusing on plans to celebrate its centennial anniversary in its remod- eled/expanded campus in the coming year. If you would like more information or would
like to schedule a tour to check out all the chang- es at WhiteStone, please call at (336) 547-2947 or visit us online at . As always, if you have any questions, feel free to call me at (336) 547-2992 or email me at . WhiteStone staff, residents and future buyers
posed for a picture during their recent hardhat tour of construction site.
