For those who travel Hwy 100 north of Drexel, I'm sure you've seen all the construction going on around the Sacred Heart Monastery and the land across the street from it. The land across from the monastery is the site of the new Sacred Heart at Monastery Lake senior complex and retirement facility for priests. Since its approval back in October, site preparations have been moving along at a decent pace, and it looks like developer Mark Carstensen Construction & Development is on track for an opening of the first phase of the project sometime later this year.
The project's rendering is currently the banner for Franklin Today, which shows the view from the lake behind the complex.
