Getting A Longview Of Your Future.

"Longview’s close connection with Ithaca College inspires me to be a lifelong learner – and teacher – all at the same time. Whether I’m enrolled in a class at IC or part of an intergenerational program at Longview, staying connected with young people creates energy, curiosity, and fun that’s unlike any other place I’ve lived."

"Since graduating from Cornell, I’ve lived and worked in Ithaca several times. Two of my children are here, so Longview is an ideal solution for me. My neighbors and the staff are so friendly and nice. I have a never-ending list of things to learn and do here."

"It's been a very enjoyable time here. I love the variety of activities, and everyone is so cheerful and helpful. I get a lot of enjoyment in playing the piano for services"

"I find the friendships, the people, are interesting. The activities are very stimulating. I especially like the Ithaca College courses. I think that is a reason to come here instead of somewhere else. It's absolutely wonderful to audit a course."

"I am a recent resident at Longview and have found both the facilities and the staff to be well equipped to service my needs. There are a multitude of activities to allow anyone to become acquainted with other residents, socialize and make new friends. I am particularly happy with Longview's connection to Ithaca College, with access to all their facilities and the ability to audit courses at the college."

“The staff is very helpful, the residents are friendly, the food is good and there are lots of activities. I love it here, I really do. I’ve had wonderful experiences and nice friends.”

“I was attracted to Longview before I even got here, because of the word ‘community.’ It is my life. I’ve taught kids about community for years. The best thing I’ve discovered so far about Longview is I am encouraged to build upon things. Whatever ideas and experiences you have, you can find a way to expand them and share them here. I needed to go somewhere where it was open to potential, to possibility, and that’s what this place is offering.”

“One of the reasons I moved here is that I was living alone in my house, and it isn’t wise or healthy to live a solitary life, so a place like Longview provides a new society, a new group of friends to be with. I appreciate not having to cook for myself all the time, and there is an amazing array of recreation activities. I never miss our horticulturist’s talks. I’ve been big on the Community Garden, too. I used to have huge gardens, so it’s been a real attribute.”
