MP Edward Timpson placed the last tile on the roof of Belong Crewe in July 2010 with the assistance of the Villages General Manager Melanie Saywell, Cruden Managing Director Alan Davies and Construction Director Ian Woolrich with Contracts Manager Peter Blake and his construction team.
Known as 'topping out', the ceremony marks the end of building work at the village.
After Edward Timpson had topped out the village, he was given a preview of one of the modern apartments and had a brief tour of the site.
Later, addressing an audience of Belong directors and staff, construction workers, architects and other guests, he said: "This village will be an important addition to Crewe which is in an area with a proportionately higher ageing population than the national average.
"I was asked if I was going to sign up for a room. The apartments are absolutely delightful, but I am going to hang fire on that decision for a few years yet!"
The £7.9m village is due for completion October 2009, it will comprise 65 high dependency flats and 12 extracare flats together with communal facilities.
