English term or phrase: senior citizens\' apartments
Ciao a tutti,
It's a building that brings together a community hospital, senior citizens’ apartments, hawker centre and community spaces.
"senior citizens' apartments" si riferisce ad appartamenti di fascia superiore/di lusso o ad abitazioni per pensionati (o addirittura case di riposo)?
Chiedo soprattutto ai madrelingua americani.
Grazie

Appartamenti destinati ad anziani
Explanation:
Sono appartamenti singoli destinati ad anziani pensionati (da soli o in coppia) quindi meglio usare la parola appartamenti per distinguere da altri tipi di residenza per anziani.

Reference information:
So what’s next for WOHA? The Kampung Admiralty project in Singapore – a flagship building that brings together a community hospital, senior citizens’ apartments, hawker centre and community spaces – is scheduled to be completed later this year, according to Wong. And there are hopes that one of its master plans for the city – a radical feat of urban planning – will come to life.

“We have proposed a new kind of city, self-sufficient in food, water and energy, and filled with nature,” explains Hassell. “It is realizable with current technologies and costs. We have shown what can be done at the architectural scale, we only need a courageous decision from a jury to make a prototype at a district level.”
