Developers are spending hundreds of millions on high-end assisted- living apartment projects , one on the Upper East Side and one in Midtown, and aiming for more in the area and across the U.S. The bet is that there are sufficient numbers of the affluent and aging in big cities who won't want to leave their neighborhoods, even as they suffer cognitive decline .

Some will top more than $20,000 at the building Welltower Inc. and Hines are about to break ground for on the corner of ...
