Friend of mine indicates there are issues with rainwater in her parent's apartment and problem has recurred several times. Her parent has had tarps hanging and dust in her living space for weeks on end. Meanwhile new construction continues!! Makes me feel sad. She deserves better!!!!

My husband and I have been visiting the Forest at Duke for many years, in preparation for choosing where to spend our future years. We moved in 3 months ago, and it has exceeded all our expectations. The residents and staff have all been welcoming and helpful; the activities are varied and so numerous we can't take advantage of them all; the building and grounds are lovely and well-maintained; and the food is delicious!
