The 80th Street Residence is the only dedicated facility in New York City specializing in enhanced memory care — and is the very first recipient in the nation of the Alzheimer's Foundation of America's Excellence in Care Dementia Care Program Award. The 80th Street Residence offers seniors who are unable to live alone amenities and services with a specifically structured program for Residents with varying degrees of memory challenges. Each of the 8 floors is a unique home-like "neighborhood" designed to encourage Residents' participation in activities in a relaxed and comfortable setting.
