Park Place Towers at Park Central

We visiting our grandparents and amazed how good is all the facilities here

An easy way to find my destination

Tearing apart downtown Amarillo one parking lot at a time.

My mother is going to Park Central Community. We've gone up there to get an idea of her room and get some measurements. They gave us the tour and it was nice. They have so many activities to do. They have a five-star restaurant. They had a lot of outings, so they can get out and do things, just more than I think anyone can imagine. There are different buildings and she'll be in the independent one right now. Later on, she might need to move over to the assisted if she needs more nursing care. They have an Alzheimer's unit as well. The residents we saw were about to play bunco. There were several elderly people and you have to be 62 to move in. They also have apartments. I'm 60, and I may think about moving into those apartments and you can continue to work. There were people eating. They have a certain time for everybody to come and eat in the dining room. If it's past that time, they can order room service. They have a hamburger sandwich shop. They have a convenience store that has cooked food also. There was an exercise place. There were women and men in there exercising, and they had someone there to watch and make sure that they were exercising properly. They had a washing machine and dryer on their floor. They had different seating areas. They tell my mom that she can sit anywhere, that that was her home, not just the apartment above, but downstairs as well. They had a library. They had a place where she could get her hair done, her nails, and her feet. She could make appointments. There's just a whole bunch. It'll help mom be more active. She's on a walker, so we're hoping that helps the circulation of her legs a little bit. They have a separate dining room that sits about ten maybe. If we have family coming in, we can make reservations. A waiter or waitress comes to us and gets our order. I just talked to our custodian the other day and she says she goes maybe two or three times a week and eats over at the dining room because it's open to the public at certain times. The staff was awesome and very friendly. Even the residents that live there kept introducing themselves to my mom. I think the challenge will be for her to remember everybody. The facility was very clean. They were actually in there cleaning her apartment at the time, so they do a thorough cleaning. My mom was excited when she saw the place.

We toured this facility and it was nice. Definitely city living. It's downtown and the room they had available was on the 10th floor. Location wasn't what we were looking for. The rooms were nice, it was clean, and everyone was friendly. Just not the best fit for my loved one. Great option for city living, if that's what you're looking for. It wasn't for us, so we kept looking.
