Still no mention that the existing facility was closed earlier this year and has been vacant since then. Dyer makes it sound like they are installing these upgrades for the sake of current residents.
ReplyDelete5:49: "Dyer" broke the news about these upgrades. The other Manor Care facility in 20816 is also vacant. We have to move on at some point to talk about the future plans for these buildings, as I've done above.
DeleteWho bought this place from ManorCare? I don't recall if the news reports on this made that clear.
ReplyDeletePeter, it's Sunrise Senior Living.
DeleteReduced parking? Bad plan!
ReplyDeleteIs there another Senior Care facility planned on Rugby Lane almost directly across from this facility on Battery?
ReplyDeleteYes, the Brightview building will be on Rugby Avenue.
DeleteSo what happened to all the old people who used to live in the three Manor Care facilities that closed this year? Were they turned into Soylent Green, to be used by the restaurants in Montgomery Mall's food court?
ReplyDeleteTossed out on the street, like what Sidwell Friends will do in the District. Always entertaining to watch how limousine liberals deal with the most vulnerable.
DeleteWait so a private organization decides not to provide a service anymore. And it's phrased as tossed out on the street?
DeleteI can't wait until everyone realizes that these senior housing options will fail. When it comes to retirement, Montgomery County, Maryland is NOT a dream come true. It's a nightmare! Move. Move far away.
ReplyDelete3:53: They didn't decide to not provide a service - they grabbed the pot of gold Sidwell Friends offered them.
ReplyDeleteHeadline from The Washington Post in September:
"A land deal for an elite private school will displace more than 100 sick, poor people"
They're not even moving to another facility. The residents will be, yes, out on the street by the end of next year. The use of the "windfall" of cash hasn't been publicly disclosed at this point. Quite a different scenario from what you're characterizing it as.
All within their right.
Delete"They didn't decide to not provide a service - they grabbed the pot of gold Sidwell Friends offered them."
ReplyDeleteSo, in other words, they agreed to the sale and decided not to provide the service.
Insane drama queen.
"They're not even moving to another facility. The residents will be, yes, out on the street by the end of next year."
Every single one of them will be homeless 13 1/2 months from now? Is that what you're claiming?
