I moved into a bachelor apartment at the begining of 2022. My apartment has more room than I expected and a terrific view of the city. Management has been more than helpful and the staff do a terrific job making sure the rooms are cleaned twice per week the hallways and common areas are always spotless the elevator runs just fine for me. The delicious meals are served in a very nice dining room. When the weather improves we will be allowed to sit and chat or read or enjoy some peaceful time by ourselves on our rooftop patio. There are so many positive attributes to the lifestyle when living in this building I probably left out a few by mistake. If you're a senior and looking for new residence give Mary a call and arrange a tour at the Residence at Augusta 155 James St. S.
