The
Brook Assisted Living
Roscommon, Michigan
Spacious and functional interior spaces are the words most often used to
describe these living units. The picnic areas, parking, walkways,
building entries, meeting room, community kitchen and laundry are easily
and conveniently accessible to the elderly and sometimes physically
handicapped tenants.
The residents take pride in their housing and in many cases have
personalized the entries to their units, as well as their patios, just
as one might do when living in a typical detached home. It is gratifying
to see the residents of The Brook consider this their “home” and not
just the place that they sleep.

Bedford
Village
Bedford Township, Michigan
This successful senior housing community was the result of a community
desire and the successful selection of a multi-family developer who
created an attractively designed turn-key senior community. The
developer was responsible for site planning, building design,
construction drawings and ultimate construction. One of the predecessor
firms of Dorchen/Martin Associates, Inc. acted as the consulting
architect for this attractively successful senior community nestled
harmoniously into Bedford Township.
