Tapestry at The O'Keefe - Arbutus Walk in Vancouver is Concert's first seniors living community. Please read what the residents say about their experience living in this exceptional residence.
"My wife and I have scooters and we’ve been to a lot of other places and they’re way out in the country. This is only three blocks from your main street and we can go shopping everywhere on our scooters and really enjoy the neighbourhood. It’s beautiful."
"Definitely the people – everything – there’s so many things that you’re offered food, entertainment, good friends, good accommodation. Lift the phone and you’ve got everything you want."
"Oh, just like a major hotel – it’s first class!"
"Actually, I didn’t choose it, I got pushed in here (laughter), but it’s great. My son came down from Terrace and we weren’t well at the time, so he started looking around, where we got more attention, and he found this. And it’s been wonderful."
"It’s an ideal combination of privacy or not, as you will. You can live entirely self-sufficiently in your suite with your own kitchen and everything but when you feel the need of company – I’ve made lots of new friends here. It’s just ideal."
"I was perfectly happy in my home – but I came and everybody was so nice, I thought what a good idea – we’ll give it a try."
"The most important thing is a person has to be ready to come into a retirement home. If you make your own decision instead of letting your kids make it later, I think it’s very important. It’s just like living in a first-class hotel with your own suite. I’d recommend it to anybody."
"There’s a town car that we went to the doctor in. You can take it every Wednesday and that’s really great, because I have fallen and broken my shoulder – it’s not easy to get around, so it’s nice having this town car."
"I was facing up to the prospect of living alone and I was already looking and this place was just going to be developed – they hadn’t even turned the sod yet – but I became aware of it. I just liked the looks of what they were going to do and it has turned out to be an excellent choice."
