Meet the Family Behind Promenade

Steven Laufer, CEO

This Is Personal. Not Just Business.

Promenade Senior Living was not built by investors in a boardroom. It was built by a family who believed that senior care should feel personal, warm, and genuinely human.

Steven Laufer leads Promenade with a simple philosophy: treat every resident the way you would want your own parents to be treated. That is not a marketing line. It is the reason the company exists.

When Steven's team found a luxury hotel at 1228 Western Avenue in Albany, they saw more than a building. They saw the chance to create something different, an upscale community where seniors could live with dignity, comfort, and joy. A place with gourmet meals instead of cafeteria trays. A garden instead of a parking lot. A theater room instead of a common area with a mounted TV.

Promenade offers assisted living, memory care, social-model day programs, and home care. Everything a family needs under one roof, guided by people who actually care.

"This is not a facility. This is a home. And we treat it that way every single day."

Questions Families Ask Us

These are the five questions we hear most from families just like yours. Honest answers, no sales pitch.

Promenade's all-inclusive pricing starts at $3,812 per month and goes up to $7,000+ depending on the level of care your parent needs. Here is what "all-inclusive" actually means: three gourmet meals every day, full medication management, RN-directed wellness care, daily activities and social programs, fitness, a theater room, outdoor garden access, and weekly housekeeping. There are no hidden add-on fees. The price you are quoted is the price you pay. We believe families deserve transparency, especially during a time that already feels overwhelming.

No. Promenade is designed to support independence, not take it away. Your parent chooses their own daily routine. They decide when to eat, when to join activities, when to spend time in the garden, and when to relax in their room. Our care team is there to help when needed, not to control. We provide the safety net so your parent can keep living life on their terms with a little more support than they have at home.

Transitions are hard. We know that. That is why we do not just hand your parent a key and walk away. Our team works closely with your family before, during, and after move-in. We learn your parent's preferences, routines, and personality ahead of time. We introduce them to staff and neighbors gradually. And we check in consistently during those first weeks. Most families tell us their parent adjusted faster than they expected, because the environment feels warm and welcoming from the start.

Absolutely. Family involvement is not just welcome, we encourage it. You can visit anytime. You can talk directly with our care team about your parent's health, progress, and daily life. We keep you in the loop because we know this is a partnership. Your parent is gaining a community, not losing their family. We work with you, not in place of you.

That is one of the biggest advantages of Promenade. We offer assisted living, memory care, social-model day programs, and home care, all under one family-run organization. If your parent's needs change, they do not have to move to a completely new facility and start over with strangers. We adjust the care plan, not the address. Our RN-directed wellness team monitors your parent's health continuously and adapts support as needed. Your parent stays in a place they know and trust.
