The Pryde

The Pryde serves seniors 62 and older and has 74 LGBTQ+ affirming apartments set in the old William Barton Rogers School, which they've turned into a mix of studio, one-, and two-bedroom homes, all rent-restricted and offered at different income levels so folks have more options. The building has a landscaped courtyard where residents can sit outside, a fitness center if they want to do some exercise, laundry facilities so they don't have to go offsite, two private resident lounges, a sunroom for natural light, and big spaces for events or for art shows. There are classrooms for anyone interested in continuing to learn something new, plus a cinema for watching movies together. Residents get on-site supportive services, and there's programming and services for LGBTQ residents which helps create a welcoming place. The Pryde focuses on being a safe, inclusive community for seniors to live independently but with support when they need it, in a setting where folks can gather, find some privacy, or stay active as they wish.
