Our Vibrant, Culturally-Diverse Community

We are very proud of our wonderful, vibrant, culturally-diverse community and the many seniors who reside with us. We foster independence in a socially-active environment and yet provide assistance to those residents who need that support with medications and personal care. The majority of our Care Team and Management Team has been here for over 5 years, giving our residents the comfort of receiving assistance when needed by the same, friendly, reliable faces. Compared with most other assisted living communities, the average age of our residents is about 10 years younger, or around 80.

We’re located in the heart of Boston’s cultural district, and diagonally across from historic Symphony Hall and close to the city’s major museums and fine shopping. An MBTA station is located directly across the street from our community, and a paved walking trail, the “Southwest Corridor Path,” is located adjacent to our main entrance. We have a spacious, enclosed outdoor patio off our dining room providing a serene, peaceful environment. We also have free parking in our underground parking garage for residents, visitors, and healthcare professionals.
