I Visited This Community

Over the last several years, there have been different owners of this retirement facility which is geared toward people who can live independently in their own apartment, although there is a separate area for people needing assisted living. It is a lovely facility, nicely furnished and decorated with a large general dining room that is airy and bright, surrounded by large windows where residents are served two meals a day. There is a swimming and exercise room on the premises. On the main floor outside the dining room is the lobby where residents can be seen socializing together. In the middle is a grand piano and concerts are occasionally held. The food is good, although the waitstaff tend to be young and inexperienced. Religious services are held for people who are Jewish. If relatives want to stay over there are extra rooms. The one bedroom and two bedroom apartments are roomy with good closet space. Residents are able to furnish the apartments as they would like. On the premises are caregiving staff who can be hired to assist residents. The facility is several stories high and there are two elevators which get quite busy at meal time.
