Official Opening
In 1960, the first U-shaped lodge was built on this five-acre site. This unique design allowed residents to enjoy scenic views and access a beautifully landscaped central courtyard. The original building featured a kitchen, dining room, library, and matron’s suite. Cypress View Foundation, a non-profit seniors housing facility, was established to serve low to moderate income seniors aged 65 and older.
Wild Rose Lodge
The Wild Rose Lodge officially opened on December 16, 1970, introducing a new housing concept aimed at providing a more pleasant environment with a less institutional feel.
