Love the Sunset

My apartment is on the 5th floor and I have great view of the sunset. I enjoy the location being right downtown close to restaurants. I have good neighbors and it is quite. We have activities everyday and I have made good friends.

Independent Living

My journey started for an independent Living for my dad. Dad is 79 years old, and he is very active, and independent. His home place is just too much for him to maintain. toured Greenbriar at the Altamont, which I must say was very welcoming, the feedback from other resident was that they just loved it. My favorite was the newly renovated apartments on the 7th floor which was very fresh, with open floor plan. The views that over look Birmingham was Beautiful. My dad will be admitting soon to Greenbriar at the Altamont. I can't wait to see his view from his apartment at night.
