The Fitzgerald of Pallisades, still under construction and planning to open in spring 2025, aims to offer a boutique senior living experience for people who want both peace and vibrant activities. The community plans to apply for an Assisted Living Residence license once it's complete, but as of now, it's not yet licensed by the D.C. Department of Health. The design brings together Art Deco-inspired interiors with quiet custom scents and curated playlists in the lobby, giving it a unique feel. Residents can expect one, two, or even three bedroom options with modern features like quartzite counters, brass hardware, and Kohler® fixtures, and there are extra spaces like a great-room, living room, kitchen, and more.
The Fitzgerald will offer a full range of care-independent living, assisted living, memory care for those with dementia or Alzheimer's disease, skilled nursing, and home care-so people can get help on their own terms and stay as their needs change, which some call aging in place. Memory care residents have special programs and housing to help reduce confusion and prevent wandering, and the staff's high associate-to-resident ratio means people get plenty of attention. The wellness team brings care and therapies right to residents' rooms, and the community provides support for daily tasks like bathing and medication if needed.
Meals are said to be nutritious and made to help with vitamins and minerals, and the Promenade dining room and room service provide choices for how and where to eat. There's Zelda's Lounge for relaxing, a saltwater pool, a jacuzzi, sauna, and a fitness center with Peloton® bikes and Life Fitness® equipment plus monthly personal training, yoga, and pilates. For entertainment and learning, there's a state-of-the-art theatre, lots of activities, and award-winning programs that help people stay social, active, and engaged every day.
People at The Fitzgerald will also find upscale extras like a full-service beauty salon, housekeeping, concierge, valet parking, covered parking, and chauffeured transportation in electric vehicles. There's a courtyard outside for fresh air, and the building is accessible to those with mobility challenges. Spacious floor plans and amenities like Wi-Fi, pet-friendly rules, and a welcoming, helpful staff help make the place comfortable and friendly. The staff stands out for kindness, treating residents, visitors, and each other with respect and warmth. The Fitzgerald of Pallisades is part of Kisco Senior Living, and offers tours so people can see daily life, activities, and dining before making any decisions. Community brochures are available for more details.
