We've made it this far...here's the reason.

Back in 1999, something extraordinary happened in New York City. The doors opened to the first and only Assisted living Community entirely devoted to Memory Care...The 80th Street Residence. Not many communities have such longevity. Over the decades, we've seen new buildings go up and the number of home care agencies multiply. The comparison game is real. So how is it that we have made it this far?

We do not like changewe love it! What began here as "Memory Care" has evolved into something so much better. Our decision to change was intentional. We worked hard. We studied. We learned that there are well over 100 different types of dementia. Today, we confidently welcome Residents with Lewy Body's, Parkinson's, Vascular Dementia and Alzheimer's just to name a few.
