    Seniors are Eager to move into the Arboleda Senior Apartments

    Construction is expected to be completed by mid-to-late August, with move-in dates shortly thereafter, says Resident Manager Selina R. Chavira said.

    (La Puente, Calif.) Seniors eager to make their homes at the new Arboleda Senior Apartments in La Puente have already signed up to rent many of the brand-new apartments at the Senior Housing Community.  Fortunately, there are plenty of one-and-two-bedroom apartments still available, according to Resident Manager Selina R. Chavira.  “We’re continuing to process applications,” she added; “therefore, interested individuals should apply right away.”

    The 74-unit luxury apartment community features a mix of one-and-two-bedroom apartments for seniors, 62 and Better. The Arboleda Senior Apartment community also includes a large community room, fitness center, computer center, and library. Other senior-friendly amenities include an interior mail room, laundry room on each floor, corridors with secure handrails, and two elevators.

    “We walked the property recently, and the construction looks great,” she continued. “The landscaping is starting to be put in. Trees are going in with all the plants. There’s still more to do, but it already looks amazing.”

    Chavira, who will live and work at Arboleda, says she loves the historic old-California feel of the buildings and courtyard.

    “The design of the property is so beautiful with Spanish-style tile, balconies and iron work. The design is amazing,” says Chavira.

    Builders are still putting the final touches on the apartments and community rooms, but Chavira said she’s already impressed with what she’s seen.

    “Some hallways still need flooring, and there are some other things to complete inside the units, but they look really beautiful,” she says. “Each unit has refrigerator, an electric stove and a dishwasher. And the flooring has a laminate wood look.”

    “Also, the community rooms are spacious and inviting. I can’t wait for them to be furnished,” she says.

    Construction is expected to be completed by mid-to-late August, with move-in dates shortly thereafter, Chavira stated.

    Arboleda Senior Apartments Manager Has A Heart for Seniors

    Bath tubs and showers

    Bath tubs and showers at Arboleda are very accessible with built in shower seats, several handrails and adjustable shower heads to aid seniors in comfort and necessity.

     

    (La Puente, Calif.) Resident Manager Selina R. Chavira can’t wait to meet all her new neighbors and begin creating a community where seniors can live their best lives when the Arboleda Senior Apartments open this summer in La Puente.

     

    “I have a real heart for seniors,” she said. “I was very close to my grandparents, and they were very special to me. I want to create a very special place where seniors can be healthy, happy and safe.”

     

    The Arboleda Senior Apartments feature a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments for seniors 62 and better. The 74-unit apartment community includes a large community room, fitness center, computer center, and library. Other senior-friendly amenities include an interior mail room, laundry room on each floor, corridors with secure handrails and two elevators.

     

    Chavira will live and work at Arboleda with its beautiful Spanish-style architecture.

     

    The upscale 74-unit Arboleda Senior Apartment community is contracting with EngAGE, a non-profit organization that takes a whole-person approach to community and creative, healthy aging by providing arts, wellness, lifelong learning, community building and intergenerational programs to seniors. 

    Construction continues at the Arboleda apartments. High quality wood cabinets are installed with not just luxury in mind but practicality. While wood cabinets cost a little more in construction, they last for 30 years noticeably reducing maintenance and repair costs.

     

    EngAGE is an experienced organization that already serves thousands of seniors and families living in affordable senior and multi-generational apartment communities. At Arboleda, programs will be provided on-site for residents at no charge 

     

    Programs like these are key to building beneficial community connections, as Chavira knows first-hand.

     

    “One of my grandmothers lived in a senior community for several years, and she was very close to the people who lived there. She went to the jewelry-making classes and enjoyed the birthday celebrations, games and yard sales where seniors made crafts and sold them.

     

    “My grandma loved crocheting beanies for cancer patients and preemies, and they even gave her an award for her work,” Chavira said.

    “The Spanish-style buildings are beautiful, the coverings over the windows are really quaint and I like all the iron decorations on the property,” said Selina R. Chavira, resident manager of Arboleda Senior Apartments. “The iron-work designs are very striking.”

     

    “She loved being part of that community. She loved making friends and sharing interesting activities with her neighbors,” Chavira said. “We’re going to do that at Arboleda!”

     

    Selina Chavira is also looking forward to showing off Arboleda Senior Apartments to her parents when they visit in August for a family event.

     

    “My family lived just down the street,” Chavira said. “My parents are very active and they love the area. They love hiking the trails at nearby Schabarum Regional Park.

     

    “They’ll see that the Arboleda Senior Apartments are definitely a central place close to everything seniors need — medical offices, stores to shop, public transportation, a Post Office, pharmacies and restaurants,” she said.

    two types of balcony with wrought iron railings

    The upscale 74-unit Arboleda Senior Apartment community includes two types of balcony with wrought iron railings, a large community room, fitness center, computer center, and library. Other senior-friendly amenities include an interior mail room, laundry room on each floor, corridors with secure handrails and two large elevators.
