Reviews Northwest Place
September 2024
really nice facility and terrific food. the staff seems quite attentive. the only thing we didn't much care for was the size. it was vastly smaller than some of the other CCRC's we have toured. those larger facilities seem to have more scheduled and varied activities for residents. not a deal breaker but worth consideration.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Northwest Place! The staff here are truly exceptional—friendly, compassionate, and deeply committed to the well-being of every resident. It's clear that they genuinely care about each individual, making Northwest Place feel like a second home. The activity program is outstanding, offering something for everyone, every day. Whether it's a relaxing yoga class, an energizing fitness session, fun dancing lessons, or a cozy movie night, there's always something enjoyable and engaging happening. The vibrant community spirit and the variety of activities make Northwest Place a truly special place. Highly recommend!

I lived not far from here and was walking down the street on a stormy night. The lights were on and people were eating dinner. It looked very inviting. An employee asked me to stay awhile. So, I was taken, hook, line, and sinker.

My husband and I had a wonderful time at the Northwest Place Open House and tour. The staff including the front desk and director, food, and residents were all positive, informed, and welcoming. We enjoyed the tour and were impressed with the facilities' cleanliness and attractiveness.

A very good place to live in. I interact with the staff primarily at breakfast and dinner. They always accommodate my requests for not on the menu items . I also have a question. Was NW Place purposely built as a retirement home is it a conversion of another structure?

The common rooms which we were in during our 3/23/24 visit appeared to have been refurbished since our last visit and were very attractive. The residents we spoke with were all very pleased with living there.

I recently attended a music program there: an enjoyable performance by a young Canadian musician/songwriter. Everyone I met was very friendly, and I was able to converse with some of the folks who will eventually be my neighbors. The kitchen staff had prepared a lovely assortment of appetizers and offered a selection of wine and soft drinks. Very much looking forward to becoming a resident.

Northwest Place is one of my favorite communities. I've worked with so many families in the senior industry for over 2 decades and this community remains one of my very favorites, hands down. The community location is perfect for the active senior who loves a great walkable urban setting with some of the tastiest restaurant options close by. It's also an ideal community for the social senior who enjoys making connections with others. Christine has done a phenomenal job as Zest Director and fills the calendar with some of the most enriching experiences for their residents. She partners so well with Candy- who drives the bus and helps coordinate the activities calendar. Candy- is one of the kindest people I've met. Additionally- collaboration with Northwest Place's Executive Director Shannon, has been incredibly inspiring as she is so committed to offering a quality experience to every single person that walks through the front doors. The knowledge and leadership she offers her team and other industry partners is not only completely authentic- it's also offered with so much positive intention, which makes her one of the best industry leaders. Lasty--- I cannot forget to show some love to Christy at the front desk. An absolute gem of a human- with an unwavering servants heart and the kindest warm welcome I have ever gotten in a community setting. I feel confident that Northwest Place may be a really great choice to consider when a senior is relocating or downsizing. It doesn't get much better- especially right in the heart of Portland.

Amazing community! Great staff, friendly residents & a real cool NW PDX vibe. Lots of fun shops, restaurants, etc. nearby.

My Mother has lived at Northwest Place for ten years, and it would be hard for me to say enough about how wonderful a place it is. Everything, from the beautiful building, and surrounding neighborhood, to all the amenities, make it the perfect place for her. Plus, since Northwest Place is smaller than most independent living facilities, there is also a true sense of community. I have been so impressed with the staff, they are always kind, caring, and willing to help, not just as "staff", but as part of that community ... friends.
October 2023
I had a tour during the open house - we are looking for the future. Shannon and the staff were very warm and welcoming. Residents greeted us and looked like they were having a good time together and enjoying each other's company. The rooftop terrace looks like a wonderful place to gather. I got the feeling that staff and residents really care for each other.

I am helping some friends locate a retirement community and we are wait listed at NWPlace. I have done a great deal of research on retirement communities in the Portland area. I would like to say what a gem NW place is, from the fresh flowers in the entry way, to the well stocked library, to the beautiful units, and perhaps best if all, a chef whose menu far exceeds anything I've seen elsewhere regarding dietary needs and vegetarian options. The location in the Nob Hill neighborhood with its beautiful homes and cafes, as well as the Good Samaritan hospital nearby, makes this community part of a charming yet lively neighborhood. Importantly, the Executive Director was a delight to work with, and has a reputation in the retirement community in Oregon as being superb at what she does. The staff is also attentive and knowledgeable, with very little turnover, which speaks volumes. The CARF awards earned by SRG, it's parent corporation, are hard to obtain and it's clear the team is devoted to its residents. Thank you for providing a unique, elegant yet welcoming future home to loved ones.

We moved to this First Class Retirement community in March 2023. We are thrilled to be in such a caring community. The meals served in the restaurant have overall been well prepared. Breakfast is always good. Dinners are catered to taste. We love boarding the van to go to local venues. The neighborhood is so walkable. With many restaurants within a few blocks.

There are so many special things about this place that I don't know where to start. The place has a feeling of home and the staff are part of the family. All the residents are so good to each other making friends is super easy. I just love all the outings we go on and I am from Portland. I have found many new places I haven't been before. A new adventure each time I go with the group. Of course the food is excellent and Bob takes such good care of us. I enjoy watching the garden grow on the terrace and to know Bob has a watchful eye on it. I would not want to call anywhere else home. This is my home and I enjoy every minute of it.
January 2022
We have taken some wonderful excursions on the facility bus and have enjoyed many special meals.
October 2021
The staff here are friendly and receptive, but sometimes the decisions are made by SRG corporate offices in California. Our dining room has made tremendous improvements in food quality and variety. My partner and I rarely are disappointed by the selection and quality of the food. We enjoy inviting our friends and family to join us for dinner. The Executive Board of the residents association is working hard to make Northwest Place a real home for the residents. The local management is very receptive to ideas and works very hard to accommodate new ideas and changes. The activities have improved dramatically since the major scare of Covid is past. All the residents got Covid shots and every precaution continues to be taken to see we keep each other safe. There is an easy going friendliness about Northwest Place and its location is terrific! Many of the things I complained about during the height of the Covid pandemic have been resolved. I'm pretty sure lessons have been learned and procedures will continue to improve.

I started to think about relocating to Portland from Austin, Texas, to be closer to family members a couple of years after my wife passed away. Approaching my eightieth birthday, I decided that it would be wise for me to move to a retirement home where I wouldn't have to worry about things like home maintenance and cooking for one. I enjoy going to the theater and the symphony, and I like an urban environment, so I wanted to live close to downtown with easy access to public transportation. And most importantly, having lived by myself for several years, I wanted to live in a smaller community where I could get to know all my fellow residents. I made several trips to Portland to look at retirement homes but couldn't find anything I liked. The facilities were either too remote, didn't have good access to public transportation, or were too big. Despairing of finding a place I liked, I had almost given up on moving to Portland when, by chance, someone suggested I take a look at NorthWest Place. Located in a residential neighborhood surrounded by a mix of stately Victorian homes and small apartment buildings, NorthWest Place was just what I wanted. A short walk takes you to the bus and trolley stop, both of which will get you downtown within a few minutes, while the commercial corridor between NW 21st Avenue and NW 23rd Avenue offers a wide variety of shopping and dining options. NorthWest Place is located in a four-story building containing forty-six residential apartments and a restaurant offering seated service with a varied menu that changes daily. Other facilities include an activity room, a library, a game room, and a well-appointed living area for public gatherings. Off-street covered parking is available, and weekly maid service is included. A rooftop garden provides a delightful place to take in a bit of sun and fresh air or sit in the shade and read a good book. While lacking some of the facilities offered by big retirement homes, NorthWest Place more than makes up for this with a strong sense of community. In the two years I have lived here, I have gotten to know almost all the other residents and have made many new friends. I have enjoyed participating in planned activities offered by NorthWest Place and more spontaneous events like get-togethers with my fellow residents for a glass of wine before dinner. I'm pleased with my choice of NorthWest Place as a retirement home and look forward to spending many more enjoyable years living here. I recommend it highly to anyone looking for an active lifestyle in a vibrant residential community.

My father has been living here for the past five years and it has exceptional service and has met all his needs. He has enjoyed the happy hours, trips around Portland and the patio for some rays of sun. Unfortunately he needs more assistance so will be moving on but the residents and staff are wonderful and very helpful.

Moved here with my partner in November of 2017. We share a large 1 bedroom apartment on the 2nd floor with windows facing north. This is an Independent Living Senior Retirement Community of 46 units with approximately 52 residents. The building is well cared for & maintained to a high standard. Restaurant provides a very good service & high quality with a wide range of meal choices. Happy Hour every Friday afternoon! Staff & management are well versed in dealing with a wide range of different issues from the residents (when range from 63 to 101 years old with the same range of health issues) in a professional & caring manner. This is an "independent living" facility but aides are allowed to provide assistance to the residents when needed. 4th Floor Terrace is a great place to sit & relax & enjoy a glass of wine & the good weather with friends and/or family. I highly recommend this facility to anyone who wants walk ability, nice amenities, secure parking, different floor plans & a staff that really cares! PS. We moved out in March of 2019. Upper management staff changes and the constant turnover of dinning room staff along with issues with the food, made our continued stay untenable. Also the annual increase in rent with no improvement in services was an issue.

This is a wonderful independent living community, caring and thoughtful staff. My mother has had the best time here - we truly enjoyed the place.
