920 On The Park stands as a large senior housing community with 297 units and sits on seven and a half acres with nicely landscaped grounds, and you'll find it located about 20 miles outside Detroit in Troy, Michigan, where it's been around since 1974 and includes both a nine-story and a twelve-story wing made from brick, carrying a bit of that traditional apartment feel that older folks are sometimes used to. The building got a makeover back in 2004 after being acquired by POAH in 2003, and the renovations brought updates to kitchens, bathrooms, and common areas, along with new energy-efficient lighting throughout, so folks are likely to find things more comfortable these days, and they've even added in water-saving aerators, showerheads, and toilet flappers to help cut down on utility costs. 920 On The Park offers affordability for people who are at least 55 years old and meet certain income limits, and it also welcomes people 62 and up, including those who have mobility needs, with apartments thoughtfully designed for independence, some with walkout balconies so natural light fills the rooms, and there are options for carpeted bedrooms and living areas for extra comfort while most units have sweeping views.
Private balconies or storage alcoves come with every floor plan, and full-size kitchen appliances and window coverings are standard, plus the community's pet-friendly for both cats and dogs, which can be important if someone wants a bit of animal company. A big plus is that the rent includes utilities, and there's a van that gives scheduled rides to shopping and activities if you want to get out, though you can also use public transportation for appointments or trips to nearby cities. Ample resident parking's available for drivers, and safety's taken seriously with controlled entrances and emergency medical alert systems installed in every apartment, while around-the-clock maintenance and an online repair request system help keep hassles to a minimum. The management and maintenance team from POAH Communities runs things on site, and they organize a lunch program, community fitness sessions, social activities, and van trips, while common areas like the business center, laundry room, a lending library, and a room with a pool table and treadmill give residents something to do on a quiet day, so there seems to be plenty of chances for folks to stay active or just relax and enjoy their time, which always helps when thinking about where to settle down.
