City officials, business leaders, volunteers and community members officially welcomed Vineyard Park to the Mountlake Terrace community Saturday morning.
A ribbon cutting was held and was followed by an Open House at the new retirement/assisted living complex. Vineyard Park officially opened this spring with the first resident moving in on March 30. The facility currently has 25 residents with 15 more scheduled to move in shortly.
Vineyard Park has a gift shop, featuring hand-crafted items by senior citizens, that is open to the public. In addition, select rehabilitation services, a beauty salon and massage therapy are available to the general public. Mountlake Terrace residents also can grab a meal in Vineyard Park’s dining room.
