That’s why many older folks decide to move into a retirement community. A select group of Buffalonians have already made that decision and joined the Priority Wait List at Canterbury Woods Gates Circle. Those folks are first in line to move into one of the elegant, beautiful apartment homes and experience all of the amenities and services this unique continuing care retirement community will offer.

There are many reasons why these charter residents have opened the door to a fulfilling retirement life by joining the Priority Wait List. One that’s often overlooked is that, if you are one of the early residents, you’ll be shaping the personality and spirit of this new community. If you want a Tai Chi class, for example, you can ask the fitness manager to start one. Want to get a group together to visit the shops in Elmwood Village? The activities director will help you organize it. Love a certain type of pinot noir? Ask the steward in the penthouse lounge to stock it for you. You’ll be able to participate in many ways to help make it an ideal place for everyone.

The vision for retirement living at Canterbury Woods Gates Circle is based on what older Buffalonians told us: They want a community that reflects and supports the active, involved lives they’re already living. As a charter resident, you can help make that vision a reality!

Besides the influence you’ll have as a charter member, there are several good reasons for planning your retirement at Canterbury Woods Gates Circle now:

• You’ll be able to customize your spacious apartment home and design your perfect retirement haven to suit your personal tastes and style.
• You’ll love the peace of mind that comes with living in a safe, secure environment. If you need help, it’s just a call button away.
• When you want company, friends and neighbors are just a few steps away.
• You’ll enjoy multiple dining options, from fine dining to casual fare—every day of the week, if you wish.
• You’ll never be bored! There’s always something to do—classes and courses within the community and, since you’ll be close to the downtown heart of Buffalo, easy access to shops, restaurants and world-class entertainment, sports and museums.
• And, of course, you’ll never have to shovel snow, climb a ladder or pull weeds again!

Recent studies have shown that many older people find they enjoy life even more after moving into a community than they did when they lived in their homes. In one such study, the participants said they were happier, felt healthier and were less lonely when they lived in a retirement community. The provision of services to enhance their physical, social and psychological well-being allowed them to maintain their own sense of identity and added up to a better life.

If you asked residents of our sister community, Canterbury Woods Williamsville, about their decision to join a retirement community, many will tell you that it’s a great idea to do so sooner rather than later.

And why wait to make new friends, discover new passions and liberate yourself from worries about home maintenance or transportation? At Canterbury Woods Gates Circle, you can create your ideal retirement life, in elegant, state-of-the-art surroundings.
