Assisted living, independent living, and memory care all operate under one roof at 4855 Niagara St, which means a resident’s care level can shift without a change of address.

Pets are allowed here, a detail that carries real weight for residents unwilling to part with a companion animal as part of a move.

For families who’d rather solve that transition once, in a familiar building with a familiar staff, that structural feature is the one worth paying attention to.
