A NEW CHAPTER IN SENIOR LIVING:

Assisted Living Coming to All Seasons Ann Arbor FA L L 2026

A new chapter in senior living is taking shape in Ann Arbor, Michigan. In Fall 2026, All Seasons Ann Arbor will introduce its highly anticipated assisted living offering, bringing a refined, supportive lifestyle to individuals who value both independence and personalized care. Designed to elevate the traditional perception of assisted living, this new addition reflects a modern, hospitality-driven approach—one where residents can continue to live fully, confidently, and with purpose.

At All Seasons Ann Arbor, assisted living is centered on enhancing life, not limiting it. Residents will receive personalized support with daily activities such as dressing, bathing, and medication management, all while maintaining autonomy and dignity. With a dedicated team available 24/7 and individualized care plans, each resident’s needs are met with compassion and professionalism, providing peace of mind for both residents and their loved ones.

The assisted living neighborhood will feature 80 thoughtfully designed one- and two-bedroom apartment homes that seamlessly blend comfort, safety, and modern design. Residences will include either a private patio or balcony, smart door hardware offering secure access via fob, phone, or key, as well as conveniently placed USB-C charging outlets throughout the home. Bathrooms are designed with both beauty and accessibility in mind, featuring zero - threshold showers and automated vanity lighting with motion-sensor illumination. Each residence will also offer custom cabinetry and countertops, an undercounter microwave, and in-unit laundry appliances, with additional laundry services available through the community.

Beyond the residences, the community is designed to inspire connection, engagement, and well-being.

Residents will enjoy three chef-prepared meals daily, along with housekeeping and laundry services,

on-site wellness support, and a robust calendar of social, cultural, and fitness programming. Shared spaces throughout the community include elegant dining venues, a fireplace lounge, juice bar, library, game room, outdoor courtyards, and a rooftop terrace—each thoughtfully designed to encourage both relaxation and social interaction. Assisted living residents will also enjoy full access to the signature All Seasons lifestyle, including educational lectures, group fitness, social events, and creative programming that foster continued growth and connection.

Ideally located in the heart of Ann Arbor, the community offers convenient access to nature, culture, and local attractions, providing residents with opportunities to remain active and engaged with the world around them. This is not a transition away from independence, but rather a thoughtful

continuation of it, designed to meet residents exactly where they are, with the support they need to thrive.

Prospective residents and families are encouraged to join the waitlist or schedule a personal tour to learn more about this exceptional new offering.

Resident Spotlight What We Are Reading KATIE STRAND-EVANS

All Seasons Ann Arbor People of the Book: A Novel

by Geraldine Brooks

ALL SEASONS ANN ARBOR

Katie Strand-Evans’ path to costume design began with an unexpected turn. Originally planning to study chemistry at Kalamazoo College, a change in family circumstances led her to the University of Michigan, where she discovered a new creative direction in the School of Art, majoring in Advertising Design.

It wasn’t until her senior year, after taking a costume design class, that she found her true passion.

She went on to earn her Master of Fine Arts degree from Ohio University and built a distinguished career in higher education, teaching at the University of Michigan, Boston University, and Eastern Michigan University. During her 30-

year tenure at Eastern Michigan University, Katie taught a wide range of courses in the Department of Communication, Media & Theatre Arts. She designed and constructed costumes for more than 120 productions and hand-illustrated promotional posters for theatrical performances—bringing stories to life through thoughtful, detailed design.

Among her many accomplishments, Katie designed costumes for the character Angelica in a production of Giacomo Puccini’s Magic Hour, featuring actress Gilda Radner. She is also the author of the book "Costume Construction," which highlights the many skills behind creating stage magic—from sewing and fabric selection to draping, patternmaking, dyeing, and crafting detailed accessories like hats, masks, and historical garments.

Today, Katie continues to nurture her love of the arts at All Seasons Ann Arbor, where she enjoys pottery and participates in watercolor and acrylic painting classes—proving that creativity is a lifelong journey.

All Seasons West Bloomfield Broken Country

by Clare Leslie Hall

A rare 15th-century Hebrew manuscript survives centuries of war and persecution. Modernday conservator Hana Heath uncovers hidden artifacts in the Haggadah’s binding, revealing its secret history across time and continents— a story of courage, survival, and the enduring power of memory.

Set against the quiet beauty of the English countryside, Broken Country follows a woman drawn back to her rural hometown, where long-buried secrets and unresolved grief begin to surface. As past and present collide, the story unfolds through shifting perspectives that reveal how love, loyalty, and regret can fracture a community.

All Seasons Rochester Hills A Man Called Ove

by Fredrik Backman

All Seasons Oro Valley The Swimmers

by Julie Otsuka

A grumpy, routine-driven widower finds his solitary life unexpectedly disrupted when new neighbors arrive, bringing noise, chaos, and—eventually— connection. This heartfelt novel explores loss, love, and the transformative power of community, as one man’s guarded world slowly opens to friendship and renewed purpose.

All Seasons Naples Heartwood by Amity Gaige

At a public swimming pool where a devoted group of regulars gathers each day, a crack in the pool’s floor becomes the catalyst for subtle upheaval. The Swimmers unfolds through a collective voice that captures routine, belonging, and quiet obsession, before narrowing to an intimate portrait of a woman slipping into dementia. Spare, poignant, and deeply observant, Julie Otsuka’s novel explores memory, community, and the fragile ways we hold on as our sense of self begins to fade.

When an experienced hiker mysteriously disappears deep in the Maine woods along the Appalachian Trail, a tense search unfolds that weaves together multiple perspectives—the vanished woman’s own poetic letters home, the Maine State Game Warden leading the rescue, and an unexpected armchair sleuth far from the wilderness. Heartwood is a gripping, atmospheric story of survival, human connection, and the paths that lead us back to each other.

Research shows that pet companionship plays a meaningful role in overall well -being, especially for older adults. Pets can help reduce stress, boost mood, encourage physical activity, and provide a strong sense of purpose.

Ultimately, being pet-friendly means recognizing that a true sense of home comes from feeling whole.

By welcoming pets, All Seasons remains a place where residents can continue living the life they love — surrounded by meaningful connections, familiar routines, and constant companionship.

When you have accounted for the “what ifs,” it becomes much easier to focus on what matters most.

Planning for the “What Ifs”

Protecting Your Wealth SO YOU CAN KEEP LIVING WELL

You’ve likely spent decades building your financial life through hard work, thoughtful decisions, and navigating life’s many transitions along the way. And often, it’s those same moments, such as retirement, a move, or changes in family circumstances, that naturally prompt us to pause and take stock of where we stand.

For many, transitioning into a senior living community marks the beginning of a new and meaningful chapter.

The responsibilities of homeownership may be behind you, creating more time to focus on the things that matter most.

accounts matters just as much as how much you have. A thoughtful, tax-sensitive withdrawal strategy, deciding which accounts to pull from and when, can help your money last longer and reduce unnecessary taxes over time. Coordinating withdrawals with Social Security timing and required minimum distributions (RMDs) can also play an important role. Working with a trusted advisor can help ensure these decisions are made thoughtfully and adjusted over time as your needs and the tax landscape evolve.

At this stage, it is only natural to start thinking about Staying Grounded Through Market how to protect your nest egg and everything you Ups and Downs have worked so hard to build while making sure it Markets will fluctuate and headlines will come and continues to support the life you want to live. go. In the short term, volatility is inevitable. But your financial plan should not be built around short-term Protecting Against Running noise, it should be grounded in a long-term strategy.

Out of Money

A well-structured financial plan can help answer that question with clarity. By understanding what it costs you to live, along with your income sources such as Social Security, pensions, and investments, you can begin to build a plan tailored to your individual situation. Beyond that, how you draw from your

At this stage of life, protecting your wealth often means shifting the focus from growth to a “conservative” allocation however, just as it is too “risky” to have a portfolio invested entirely in stocks it is also too “conservative” to have the portfolio invested solely in bonds, annuities and other fixed income investments.

A well-diversified portfolio, aligned with your income needs and risk tolerance, can help reduce the impact

Another piece of protecting your wealth is preparing for the unexpected, especially when it comes to healthcare. While Medicare provides valuable coverage, it does not cover everything. Planning for potential out-of-pocket costs, long-term care needs, or unexpected expenses can make a meaningful difference. This is not about predicting the future. It is about building flexibility into your plan so that no matter what happens, you are prepared.

First, make sure you understand your Medicare coverage including prescription drug coverage (Part D) and whether a supplemental policy, such as Medigap, makes sense for your situation. These policies can help cover gaps like deductibles, copays, and other out-of-pocket costs.

Protecting Yourself from Fraud and Mistakes Unfortunately, financial scams and fraud are becoming more common, particularly among older adults.

Protecting your wealth today also means putting simple safeguards in place: •

Adding a trusted contact to your accounts

•

Being cautious of urgent or unsolicited financial requests

•

Taking time before making large financial decisions

•

Seeking a second opinion when something does not feel right

Second, consider long-term care. If you already have a policy, take the time to understand how it works, Often, it is not complexity that protects you. It is including what it covers, when benefits begin, and awareness and a few thoughtful precautions. how claims are paid. If you do not have coverage by your early 60s, it is often much more expensive to obtain, making it important to plan thoughtfully for how those potential costs would be handled.

Thirdly, maintain a dedicated emergency fund.

The Power of Simplicity One of the most overlooked—but powerful—ways to protect your wealth is by simplifying your financial life.

Over time, it’s easy to accumulate multiple accounts, scattered documents, and outdated information. While it may not seem like a risk, complexity can lead to confusion, missed details, and unnecessary stress—both for you and your family.

Simplifying can make a meaningful difference: •

Consolidating accounts where appropriate

•

Organizing key financial and legal documents

•

Reviewing and updating beneficiaries

•

Ensuring a trusted person knows where to find important information Simplicity creates clarity. And clarity creates confidence.

Protecting Your Legacy For many, protecting wealth isn’t just about today, it’s also about what you leave behind. Whether your goal is to support children and grandchildren, give to causes you care about, or simply ensure your affairs are in order, thoughtful planning can help you make a lasting impact.

With the right plan, you often don’t have to choose between enjoying your life now and leaving something behind. You can do both.

Living Well—Today and Tomorrow Protecting your wealth isn’t about restriction, it’s about confidence. When your plan is clear and your safeguards are in place, you can spend less time worrying about your finances and more time focusing on what matters most.

Because at the end of the day, financial planning isn’t just about numbers. It’s about giving you the freedom to live well today, tomorrow, and for years to come.
