Living Alone, but Together...

Is there someone you know who maybe watches a little too much news? You know the type; likes to workout at home, be close to everything, (but secretly never really wants to leave the house). They like having a car, but never actually uses said car (because you drive them around). Yeah, I know that person too. It's my dad. And I think he should move into this place already.

And you know what, he could afford to on his retirement budget. He could drop that gym membership he grumbles about (because there's a first rate gym in-house), park his car in his designated spot (and wait for me to pick him up); and when he does want to get out of the house he can take a stroll along the waterfront.

You know what else he could do? After watching CNN for 5 hours straight and scaring the bejesus out of himself, he could be rest assured that he's safe. Because there's 24 hour concierge service. That means he's extra safe. Protected from the outside, yes, but also someone on-site if there’s any sort of emergency…or if he needs help calling his Lyft. And you know what my kids would dig? The INDOOR and OUTDOOR pools. I think visits to grandpa's have just become the highlight of our week!

Extra bonus, he's super close to the OHSU tram, making medical appointments a breeze.

Okay, you better move quick, cause I think I just talked my dad into moving to Portland! 

In all seriousness, this is a great place to live out your golden years while still being totally family friendly. I just love this location, this price, and all the amazing amenities.  Right now, family is more important than ever. We want our loved ones close. As we all reevaluate our priorities and our living situations this could be the opportunity to have those close to your heart, close by, while still maintaining independence. 

If you want to see this beauty you know who to call.
