Heritage Pointe of Teaneck visits the Cherry Blossom Festival

2009-04-27T12:10:00.000-07:00

Ten residents turned out for the trip to Branch Brook Park in Newark, NJ on Wednesday, April 22nd for the Cherry Blossom Festival. Branch Brook Park, the first official park in the United States, is on the registries of historic parks both nationally and in New Jersey. As it was the last day of the festival and with the recent rain, we felt very fortunate to see as many blossoms as we did and even enjoyed walking through the some of the pink petals that blanketed the ground like a magical spring snowfall. With so many paths to walk through and benches to sit on our journey introduced us to a few friendly international visitors who were also there to take in the spectacle of 2,000 Cherry Blossom trees. This can be similarly compared to the festival in Washington D.C. Just as magnificent, but only a short 30 minute drive from Teaneck, NJ.

A Message from David Zwald, Executive Director at The Heritage of Green Hills

2009-01-30T05:45:00.000-08:00

The Heritage’s Keiser fitness equipment arrived last week for The Club. It is amazing for its vision of wellness and ease of use. Don’t like changing weight stacks? You won’t have to. Sometimes it is awkward getting in and out of the equipment at the gym; not now. Wish you could gracefully adjust all the mechanics on the machines? No problem. Have you ever lost count of how many repetitions you just did? (Was that 8?) No problem, Keiser equipment keeps track for you. Ever have that deep ache the next day for trying to push too much weight? That’s unlikely to happen because with the push of a button you can lighten the weight. Feel strong today? Want a little challenge? A push of a button adds weight.

After a short orientation by our professional team of Julia and Cheryl, ANYONE will feel buff and agile after just a few tries. I hope to be pushin’ it around 6:30 AM any weekday. Join me, would you?

The Greening of The Heritage of Green Hills

2008-12-23T06:18:00.000-08:00

Environmentally responsible business decisions are not just a fad any longer; it is something that everyone who deems to be responsible to their fellow man must take seriously. At The Heritage of Green Hills, our management team’s commitment to environmentally responsible actions include recycling, energy conservation, and partnerships with local businesses whenever practicable to reduce long range transportation costs and support the local economy. We are discussing ways to execute environmentally wise opportunities as they present themselves.

One of our first of many “green” decisions is to serve Green Mountain Coffee in our restaurants when we begin operations in March, 2009. This decision was easy. It is great coffee with convenient systems for a pot or an individually brewed cup. Beyond that, we are very impressed with their commitment to social justice and environmentally responsible business activities. If you are interested, check it out yourself at www.greenmountaincoffee.com.

A letter from David Zwald, Executive Director of The Heritage of Green Hills

2008-12-15T12:38:00.000-08:00

As we grow closer and closer every day to the opening of The Heritage of Green Hills, the energy, curiosity and excitement continues to grow. The team of dedicated staff is growing and the temporary Heritage office now has 10 full time employees working every day preparing for the promise of the your Heritage retirement dream.

With this article, I’d like to be your eyes, to help you see what is happening. The walls, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical systems are largely complete in Liberty, the first residential building and in The Heritage Center. The quality of the construction is very impressive. Very organized, very clean, and very safe….very encouraging. They are meeting schedule deadlines at each juncture. The elevator cabs are in. Many of the apartment homes have received their first coast of paint. The building will be receiving finishes soon. The extrerior is gorgeous, in my opinion. I love the rock facing, combined with the solid hardy board siding that makes for a very handsome home indeed. The first stand of grass is growing, the parking lot is striped, and many trees and bushes to soften the landscape are in. A flagpole is in place at our front circle. By the way, the Villas are even farther along and are available to receive our first residents. The views and the convenience of the Villa lifestyle is unparalleled. Our Villa depositors will enjoy a well deserved lifestyle for such an amazing value.

“Walk” with me through the front entrance of The Heritage Center. Each room and functional area has been formed with walls in place. Almost all of the infrastructure is done – walls, plumbing, electrical, data wiring, etc. There are very high ceilings and very large windows everywhere for wonderful natural light. The grand staircase is coming together – a very large steel structure. Some of the first carpeting has been installed in the Medical offices. The mailroom is in place, pharmacy, bank, day spa. The state of the art mechanical plant – electrical service, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning – is all in place. Very efficient. The emergency generator is in place.

Moving to the 2nd level of The Heritage Center, there is a wonderful sense of natural light and openness, very conducive for relaxing and socializing. This is experienced even while the finishes and the furnishings have not yet been delivered. The form of our central fireplace is in place, and the Bistro’s take out and convenience food area is taking shape. I can see where the pizza ovens will go…the espresso machine, the grill for hot paninis, and also, where the reach in case for to –go fresh made desserts will be located. The Brandywine kitchen is a tremendous facility. The staff there will be able to enjoy natural light as well. What an inspiring place to prepare food! The form of the cocktail bar is evident. Moving down the hall to The Club, our fitness center, I am moved by the space and the light. The Club opens out to a beautiful outdoor area, wonderful for stretching and yoga in the early morning hours. Will you join me for a morning routine when we get open?

I hope this article whets your appetite for more. It has been a joy to write and if you would like to learn more, let us know.
