Ninety-year-old Mary Holley had an upbeat manner as she showed her visitors her apartment on the 11 th floor of Westview Tower near West Town Mall recently.
“I like to be happy,” she said. “I praise God every day I wake up.”
While the 1952 Central High graduate’s apartment is brightened by pictures of cats and flowers and other scenes she painted, she also now has some refreshing features to complement both her adornments and positive personality. Building owner LHP Capital recently completed a full renovation of the 240-unit complex at 7823 Gleason Drive with the help of McCarty Holsaple McCarty Architects and general contractor Christopoulos & Kennedy.
The renovation work, which began in late 2022 and was completed with an Oct. 1 ribbon cutting, features numerous upgrades in each apartment. They include new wood plank-looking vinyl flooring, new paint, new LED lighting, new walk-in showers and countertops in the bathrooms, and new ranges, refrigerators, quartz countertops, and cabinets in the kitchens.
