Overview of St. Ann‘s Residence

St. Ann’s Residence is a senior living community in downtown Duluth, Minnesota, offering both assisted living and nursing care in a single 3-story building on East 3rd Street. Because both levels of care sit under one roof, residents whose needs change over time can often stay in familiar surroundings rather than move to a different community. The Executive Director is Adam Wisocki. With 150 beds, it is one of the larger communities in the Duluth area, which typically means more common space and more organized programming through the week.

Housing runs to two-bedroom apartments, some with balconies, along with more affordable housing options, so families have room to match the living arrangement to a budget. Care is available around the clock, meaning help with daily needs such as bathing, dressing, and medication support can be reached at any hour. Transportation services are offered for appointments and errands, and fitness and recreation programming gives residents a regular reason to stay active and connected with neighbors.

The location is a practical strength for families weighing day to day logistics. The community sits about 0.6 miles from Duluth’s city center in the downtown and waterfront area, and Essentia Health St. Mary’s Medical Center is roughly a tenth of a mile away, which matters for both routine appointments and anything urgent. The neighborhood scores 85 out of 100 for walkability, so most errands can be handled on foot and visiting family will find parking, dining, and shops close by.

Taken together, St. Ann’s offers a downtown setting with hospital access, two levels of care in one building, and a mix of apartment and affordable housing choices that suit a range of budgets and care needs.
