It is the 7th Inning Stretch

Evaluating Retirement Living options and Senior Communities can be very confusing .  Often the campuses are quite large and can be somewhat intimidating for a parent who has lived in a single family home for the past 50 years.  Almost always the location is isolated from the services, shopping  and entertainment that parents have been accustomed to using in their communities. Meals are usually mandatory and do not include people of other ages or non-residents.  When the time comes to give up driving, there is a very real loss of independence and the ability to remain self-sufficient.

UrbanSeniorLiving was created as an alternative to the traditional retirement community model.  It places parents in the heart of a pedestrian friendly shopping district such as the Old Orchard Shopping District in Webster Groves, Missouri.  This quaint business and entertainment district offers well over 120 sources of entertainment, education, theatre, shopping, dining, and service within a block or two from the front door.  Neighbors include Webster University, the St. Louis Repertory Theatre, the St. Louis  Opera Theatre, Insight Theatre, St. Louis Symphony Concerts in Gazebo Park, the Webster Groves Farmers Market, Art&Air outdoor art fair, and many other sources of entertainment.

Pacific Place residents, in the first urbanSenior Community,  walk for health, social contact and convenience.  The business district is their fitness center and their playground.  It is easy to maintain acquaintances of all ages and to feel involved in the broader community that surrounds where they live.  Family members enjoy their visits to see mom or dad, because everyone can enjoy the shopping, dining and neighborhood events that take place throughout the year.  

Sons and daughters living in St. Louis or the Webster Groves – Kirkwood area, are able to offer parents a very unique and comfortable retirement living option that brings the family together and encourages parents to remain active and engaged in everything they enjoy.  It is true that “where you live, has an unmistakable influence on how you live” .  Explore urbanSeniorLiving and see the difference for yourself. 

Many sons and daughters are learning how to live with parents into the extra innings.
