In August 2024, Newbury Court purchased 12 acres of adjacent land from our long-time neighbor, Emerson Hospital. This significant acquisition marks a transformative moment for Newbury Court, our residents, and the larger Concord community. It will allow Newbury Court to adapt and grow to serve future generations of older adults. The visioning process and rezoning requests are now underway and will likely last into 2026. Newbury Court seeks to support healthy aging by expanding housing options and promoting the overall quality of life for older adults.
Over the next few months, Newbury Court looks forward to collaborating with the community and sharing our vision for a future where older adults can continue to live with purpose, connection, and security in Concord. As part of this collaboration, we ask the citizens of Concord to learn more about the Zoning amendment at the June 2nd (2025) Town Meeting. This Zoning Amendment would allow us to build a variety of accommodations on the new property.
Our organization has been serving the Concord community for 115 years. As a not-for-profit continuing care retirement community, we offer an active, independent lifestyle while providing a continuum of care that provides whatever lifestyle our residents choose. Our commitment to promoting healthy aging, including our partnership with Emerson to provide expert health care to Newbury Court residents, has long been at the heart of what we do, and this expansion represents the next step for healthy aging in Concord.
