this retirement-changing redesign is scheduled for<br />

CC-Lake, Inc. is the sole entity responsible for the performance of the<br />

continuing care contracts at Vi at The Glen.<br />

Two new active adult<br />

apartment communities<br />

will open soon at Glenview<br />

and Evanston. Designed<br />

for those 55-plus, Avidor<br />

is the perfect combination<br />

of luxury living, exclusivity<br />

and active engagement.<br />

Avidor champions the<br />

active, 55-plus lifestyle<br />

and these two new luxury<br />

apartments are designed to<br />

inspire a fulfilled and empowered<br />

life. Embark on<br />

your next adventure. Do<br />

what you want to do. This<br />

vibrant community is designed<br />

for those who seek<br />

to enjoy an engaging life.<br />

Customize your own<br />

lifestyle with a la carte options<br />

and pay only for what<br />

you want with unbundled<br />

pricing. It’s not just living;<br />

it’s living well.<br />

Thoughtfully appointed<br />

unit features, amenities<br />

and ideal locations outside<br />

of Chicago make Avidor<br />

Finding a new home for empty nesters<br />

a prime option for worryfree,<br />

responsibility-free<br />

living. No more home<br />

maintenance. No more<br />

lawn mowing or snow<br />

blowing. Just a lot more<br />

time to devote to doing<br />

what you love.<br />

Avidor is an excellent<br />

spot to host your monthly<br />

poker tournament, sip<br />

wine on girls’ night or<br />

host movie night with the<br />

grandkids. It’s also the<br />

ideal place to meet new<br />

friends, forge relationships<br />

with like-minded individuals<br />

and ultimately live<br />

your best life.<br />

Considerate design features<br />

are incorporated into<br />

the community to accommodate<br />

residents’ family<br />

members, including children<br />

and grandchildren,<br />

with social areas such as a<br />

game room and entertainment<br />

kitchen. The community<br />

is pet-friendly as well.<br />

The North Shore is home<br />

to many Baby Boomers<br />

who are in, or nearing,<br />

the empty-nester period of<br />

their lives. This is a great<br />

phase, but not necessarily<br />

with respect to housing.<br />

Empty nesters need and<br />

want single-floor living in<br />

a smaller home. If this is<br />

you, what should you do?<br />

Moving away, whether<br />

downtown or somewhere<br />

farther, is always a viable<br />

option. The challenge arises<br />

if you wish to stay in the<br />

North Shore, where you<br />

have gained friendships<br />

and raised a family.<br />

Current North Shore<br />

housing stock offers limited<br />

options for high-quality<br />

single-level living. Evanston<br />

and Highland Park<br />

are both exceptions, when<br />

modern mid-rise and highrise<br />

living is desirable. But<br />

these buildings can often<br />

feel a little too modern or<br />

sterile. Evanston also has<br />

many very beautiful vintage<br />

condominium buildings<br />

with first-floor units<br />

only half a flight from<br />

street level. But living<br />

there may also mean limited<br />

or no building parking,<br />

window air conditioners,<br />

and possible restrictions<br />

on in-unit laundry. On the<br />

positive side, these much<br />

less expensive vintage<br />

condominiums are often<br />

very charming and welllocated.<br />

But, if neither<br />

option seems desirable to<br />

you, your best alternative<br />

may be to build a home.<br />

Building an affordable<br />

new empty-nester home<br />

gives you the ability to live<br />

in a proper single-family<br />

Amenities include unit<br />

balconies, outdoor swimming<br />

pool and hot tub, grill<br />

station, fire pit and ample<br />

green space for entertaining.<br />

Indoor offerings include<br />

a pet washroom,<br />

movie room, nail and hair<br />

salon, fitness club, yoga<br />

studio, and game room.<br />

To encourage residents<br />

to maintain their active<br />

lifestyles and promote<br />

long-term health, there<br />

will be a full-time resident<br />

services director on staff<br />

to coordinate programs<br />

for residents. Have the life<br />

you deserve. It’s time to<br />

play, explore and live with<br />

abandon.<br />

house. An empty-nester<br />

home can be built to suit<br />

your tastes and sensibilities,<br />

not those of a developer.<br />

Your custom-designed<br />

first-floor master bedroom<br />

home could comfortably<br />

accommodate the lovely<br />

antiques, art and other fine<br />

decorative objects that<br />

took a lifetime to acquire.<br />

Moreover, a manageable<br />

empty-nester home does<br />

not need to mean cramped<br />

spaces. If moving away<br />

works for you, go for it.<br />

But if you don’t want to<br />

lose what you love about<br />

the North Shore, build.<br />
