The building steps down in height in response to the adjacent townhomes and embraces the sloping topography of the site by activating the streetscape along Valley Brook Road with amenity spaces that wrap around a courtyard entrance. Ample windows bring daylight into the generous common areas, with views of and connections to the outdoors and multiple patios/rooftop terraces.  Designed with an emphasis on wellbeing, residents are engaged with Rise and Thrive classes in the Wellbeing Studio, dine on cuisine in the Café and Restaurant, and take in cultural activities in the Community Room. Meaningful connections are created daily between residents, visitors, and staff with ample programmed activities. Adorned with places for gathering and nooks for private moments, the building’s interior design exudes a sophisticated, timeless style – creating a warm ambience that is comfortable, welcoming, and feels like home.   ![RISOR_SM_2023_0228-8](https://kaaswilson.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Project%20Images/Risor/RISOR_SM_2023_0228-8.jpg?width=713&height=475&name=RISOR_SM_2023_0228-8.jpg) #### PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS - Indoor amenity spaces: - Restaurant with private dining - Community room/theater - Café - Health & wellbeing center - Salon - Fireside lounge - Outdoor amenity spaces: - Patio - Memory care roof deck - Common area roof deck - ![Waters of M Slider](https://kaaswilson.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Project%20Images/Waters%20of%20McMurray/Waters%20of%20M%20Slider.gif?width=700&height=467&name=Waters%20of%20M%20Slider.gif) [Back to Portfolio](https://kaaswilson.com/portfolio) ##### Search ![Line Break - Blog Sidebar](https://kaaswilson.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Line%20Break%20-%20Blog%20Sidebar.png?width=60&height=10&name=Line%20Break%20-%20Blog%20Sidebar.png) ##### Popular Posts ![Line Break - Blog Sidebar](https://kaaswilson.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Line%20Break%20-%20Blog%20Sidebar.png?width=60&height=10&name=Line%20Break%20-%20Blog%20Sidebar.png) [![](https://kaaswilson.com/hubfs/drone_25023_0026_D.jpg)](https://kaaswilson.com/blog/the-wagner) ###### [The Wagner](https://kaaswilson.com/blog/the-wagner) The Wagner is an 180 unit, market rate...
