Uniqueness of Urban Senior Retirement

urbanSenior Living communities offer the same important services and features that other communities do such as:

  • transportation,
  • ousecleaning,
  • building security,
  • emergency call services,
  • and planned events.

However, a few things set urbanSenior Living communities apart from the others. We insist on a more personalized approach, without large numbers of people and all the rules and policies that are typically found in large, institutional settings. Our urbanSenior philosophy promotes independence and individual choice. Our unique lifestyle and downtown location offers you six good reasons to consider Living at the Pointe, a special place for independent people, who choose to remain active and engaged in their communities.

Reason #1:
No Mandatory Meals

urbanSenior Living offers outstanding dining opportunities in our first floor restaurants. The restaurant is an exciting place for residents, family members and friends to dine in a restaurant if they choose to, as opposed to mandatory meals in a dining room at other traditional communities. Other age groups surround residents, family and friends feel welcome and the food is excellent. Our chef offers room service, special diet options and substantially reduced pricing for residents. If a new dining experience is what you want there are many other restaurant options within walking distance in our community.

Reason #2: A Neighborhood That Attracts Family Members and Friends

Exciting things to do and important day-to-day services surround our urbanSenior Living communities. When a daughter is invited over to see mom, it is likely that some shopping or a visit to a local restaurant is going to happen as well. Grandchildren are attracted to the ice cream shops, parks, candy stores, ducks to feed, car shows, and the numerous other neighborhood events. Family and friends, especially your grandchildren, will be happy to know that their visits will be fun and without all of the distractions related to home ownership.

Reason #3: A High Probability You Will Never Need a Nursing Home or Assisted Living

Our residents typically live independently in our communities for the remainder of their lives. We attribute this to our scheduled activities and events that are optional for the residents; the vibrant neighborhood; a smaller building with attentive staff; and the independent, active residents we attract to our campus.

Reason #4:
Multiple Financial Options

Part of the urbanSenior philosophy is a flexible approach to how individuals pay and invest their money. Our communities preserve a resident’s hard-earned capital and provide ways to have more spending money for other necessities. The many financial options allow residents to access affordable apartments.

Reason #5: Smaller Buildings With Fewer Apartments

We insist on a more personalized approach, without large numbers of people and all the rules and policies that are typically found in traditional settings. Our smaller size also allows you to navigate through the halls and move from your apartment to other areas of the building easily. Shops and services nearby offer diversity and opportunities to continue doing the things you enjoy.

Reason #6: Apartment
Homes With Features Similar To A Home

Standard features include: kitchens, high quality windows, washer/dryer hook-ups in each apartment, individually controlled heating and cooling, wall-to-wall carpeting, full- size appliances, exceptional sound proofing, and high quality hardware and trim. For residents who sign their Priority Reservation early, they can become a Charter Club which entitles them to additional features that they may choose from for a specific fee.

Two-bedroom apartments feature pocket doors to create more spacious and flexible living spaces and walk-in closets for the master bedroom. No matter what size apartment is selected, the amount of furniture it will accommodate is impressive and a source of many compliments.
