Is there an on-site dry cleaning service for fine caftans?

It’s just a big apartment complex OP. That’s all. They’re marketing it as fancy but it’s essentially apartments/condos.

If there's a 4PM common room with Golden Girl reruns, count me in!

Palm Springs is already hotter than hell in the summer and just going keep warming with climate change. I wouldn't want to live their year round.

How many millions for the apartment and thousands for the maintenance?.

If you can afford to live in Palm Springs, you can afford an air conditioner.

I’m sure it’s all overpriced. Roaches included.

They got me at "elegant."

r8, Oh no...they'll refer to them as date bugs.

I know I'm going to end up someplace like this, and I know there will be mean girls, and I know it won't be perfect, but with no family whatsoever, it presents one of the better options (esp. if outdoor space and nicer views are available).

Same, R11.

Will it be Cruisy?....Oh wait----Lesbians?.....NO thank you.....I will stay at home and hire hot shirtless guys to mow my lawn while I watch from the living room....

The condos are projected to be available for move-in by September 2021 and will range in price from the mid $600,000s to just over $900,000.

Why so cheap?

by Anonymousreply 17May 5, 2021 2:53 AM

R8 it's too hot for roaches, here.

Gay only and retirement are redundant in PS and this place is OVER PRICED.

if I had to live with ONLY gay people I think I'd kill myself. Straights are too fun to make fun of

I don't think they're going to get that.

[quote]The complex will have 105 condos spread out over three floors, including 69 one-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom units (1,167 to 1,298 square feet), and 36 that will contain two bedrooms and two bathrooms (1,574 to 1,613 square feet).

Not enough bathrooms for new construction.

Fleas, sweetie. Too hot for fleas. I've seen my fair share of roaches here in the desert.

No offense---but it looks kind of Howard Johnsons-ish.....You want ME to live THERE?....With lesbians?....Oh, I think not....I cannot imagine how many motorcyles are roaring thru the facility when the ladies go off on their shopping excursions....

I live 60 minutes from Palm Springs. I'd rather spend money on a nice hotel every other weekend.

Four pickleball courts! That sure sweetens the pot.

R24, it's 55. Ninety percent of DL would already qualify.

by Anonymousreply 25May 5, 2021 3:24 AM

Well, it's 55 *and* GLBT. So maybe not 90% of DL.

Oh my god it really does look like a Howard Johnson's. It looks like a motel postcard from 1962.

Will a buffet option be available after COVID?

Stonewall Gardens offers assisted living in North Palm Springs. Who would build a retirement village with no pool. This is for the elder-elder gays.
