The Watermark at Brooklyn Heights

The Watermark at Brooklyn Heights is a modern senior living community in Brooklyn, New York offering Active Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care. Set in a charming, historic 16-story building steps from the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, the community occupies a 1928 structure formerly known as the Leverich Towers Hotel, designed by the same architectural firm responsible for the Macy's building in downtown Brooklyn and the Lord & Taylor and Saks Fifth Avenue stores in Manhattan. The entire Brooklyn Heights neighborhood is designated as a historic landmark, ensuring preservation with no new construction allowed.

Independent Living residents enjoy carefree living with access to gourmet dining across three distinct on-site restaurants, a spa, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and on-site salon services. The community provides daily concierge services, housekeeping, and award-winning Watermark University programs designed to keep residents engaged.

The community's Memory Care program, led by specially trained caregivers, features integrated wellness and curated activities tailored to each resident's unique needs. Recognized by the Alzheimer's Foundation of America as the only community in New York to receive its national Excellence in Care distinction, the program includes a private and secure courtyard, specialized caregivers certified through the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners, and award-winning Watermark University programs.
