Overview of Park Place

Park Place operates 156 assisted living beds at 6900 37th Avenue South in Seattle’s South End neighborhood, maintaining 92% occupancy; well above the state average of 72.5%. Located in a very walkable area (Walk Score 70), the facility sits 5.1 miles south of downtown. Monthly housing costs begin at $895 for one-bedroom and $995 for two-bedroom units. The community offers memory care and accepts pets. Residents enjoy swimming, fitness facilities, BBQ and picnic areas, on-site laundry, and high-speed internet access. Operating hours are Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM-5:30 PM.

Regulatory compliance history reveals substantial deficiency patterns. Between May 2023 and September 2025, eight inspections documented 42 citations; 122% worse than Washington’s state average of 6.3 per year. Fire safety dominance marked the record: May 2023 inspections cited 12 violations (missing fire drill documentation across 12 drills, extension cords improperly deployed, missing system maintenance records for sprinklers and fire detection, electrical hazards including exposed wiring, emergency lighting failures, and loose oxygen tanks scattered through resident rooms). One year later, May 2024 fire safety review documented 14 additional violations repeating many themes: missing fire drill documentation (12 planned and unannounced drills), extension cords still in use, missing quarterly sprinkler inspection paperwork, absent carbon monoxide alarm maintenance logs, and missing fire door inspections. Following corrective action, September 2025 State Fire Marshal inspection confirmed zero deficiencies and granted facility approval.

Care planning and documentation gaps affected multiple residents. April 2025 inspections found service plans unupdated for three of 15 sampled residents; medical device safety assessments missing for two residents; TB testing incomplete for one staff member 123 days past hire date; and hand hygiene failures by food service dishwashing staff. January 2023 complaint investigation substantiated resident rights violations and property misappropriation. March 2025 complaint investigation documented improper discharge notice following a resident-to-resident alteration with injury. September 2023 inspection cited incomplete background check for the administrator and TB screening non-compliance for one caregiver. First aid kit accessibility and laundry room ventilation failures rounded out deficiency categories.

Park Place fits urban-based seniors and families seeking assisted living and memory care in a walkable Seattle neighborhood with activity-focused amenities.
