Expected to be complete in early 2019, the 102-unit, four-story building will be the second constructed within the I. E. Millstone Jewish Community Campus on the edge of Creve Coeur. 

Covenant Place is replacing a 1970s-era development at the site called Covenant House. 

The $84 million, three-phase project , the Covenant Place I Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Building, which includes 101 senior living units. A third building with 150 more apartments is planned in a future phase. 

The Cahn Family Building being constructed for the second phase will include a 19,000-square-foot community center open to both Covenant Place residents and the thousands of seniors who live nearby. The community space will offer medical care services, Medicare navigation, a multipurpose room and banking and legal services, among other amenities. The $12 million Mirowitz Center is named after Helene Mirowitz and her late husband Carl, long-time benefactors of the Jewish community.

About $11 million of the $30 million second phase is expected to come from private sources. Public assistance includes a $300,000 Community Development Block Grant and a $3 million Housing and Urban Development loan facilitated by St. Louis County. 

The Missouri Housing Development Commission in December 2015 also approved state low income housing tax credits that were expected to procure about $9.38 million in project financing, and other MHDC programs were expected to provide about $2.25 million in financing.
