Designed with residents’ wellness in mind, Arbor View offers accommodations, programs, services, and amenities that support an exceptional retirement lifestyle.

Arbor View creates an intimate, inclusive, family-like environment where team members ensure residents are valued and supported. The community’s local history runs deep. Arbor View was established in 1964 as the Colorado Lutheran Home, and today offers a full continuum of care, including 56 independent living apartments and 32 assisted living residences. The community’s newly renovated one-bedroom apartments and studio floor plan options feature private, walk-out patios. Situated atop Hackberry Hill, Arbor View’s 13-acre campus offers a serene retirement lifestyle surrounded by lovely mountain views and is within a short driving distance of Olde Town Arvada’s retail shops, restaurants, parks, and performing art venues. Arbor View is owned and managed by WellAge Senior Living, a local management firm that invests in the community, the residents, their families, and team members. WellAge’s premise is Live Well. Age Well. Formed in 2015, WellAge is a sister company of Vivage Senior Living, based in Colorado. For three decades, the founders of WellAge and Vivage – President and CEO Jay Moskowitz and CFO John Brammeier – have been innovators and influencers in senior living and health care throughout the western United States.

ARVADA, CO -- How to tell if someone is an Arvada native? Ask them to pronounce "Lagniappe." If they say "lawn-yap" they either grew up in Arvada or spent some time in New Orleans. The meaning of lagniappe in the American South is a "little extra something" thrown in by a merchant -- such as that 13th donut, when you really only ordered a dozen. But in Arvada, the word has taken on a whole new meaning in Olde Town where it represents the official start of the holiday season. Local businesses stay open late and thank their loyal customers with special Lagniappe swag. This year's Lagniappe, sponsored by Arvada Urban Renewal, takes place Tuesday, Dec. 5 between 5:30-8 p.m. Hear the Arvada Chorale perform before-and-after the tree lighting by the Mayor in the square, which takes place at 6 p.m. Enjoy a carriage ride around Olde Town and taste some of the spiciest blends at Kline's where the Chili Cook-Off to benefit Arvada Fire Department starts at 6. Even Santa will be there, at the library, of course, between 5:30-7:30 p.m. A lagniappe scavenger-hunt and eggnog and cider competition takes place at participating merchants around the district. FREE Hot Chocolate will be ladled out in Olde Town Square.
