Aegis Living Lake Union (Seattle, WA)

Take in sweeping views of Lake Union and the Space Needle from our extraordinary Assisted Living and Memory Care community, located in the very heart of Seattle in Eastlake. Opened in August 2022, the community is both stunning and inviting—you will feel right at home here, whether hosting friends and family in the elegant private dining room, watching fireworks from the Sky Terrace, socializing with new friends over lunch, or enjoying the view in your private apartment. However you choose to spend your days, you will always be surrounded by our big-hearted team who provides thoughtful, personal care to every resident.

Aegis Living Lake Union is the world’s first Assisted Living community built to meet the rigorous sustainability building standards of a Living Building Challenge Petal Certification. It is designed to be emission-free and energy-efficient, and harnesses solar power and rainwater. Inspired by the history of rowing on Lake Union, the community’s architecture resembles a shell-house design, and the exterior features a striking mural of the legendary rowing team from the University of Washington, who won Gold in the 1936 Olympics.

We cannot thank the staff at Aegis Living Lake Union enough for the care and compassion they provided us and my father in-law during his stay. As he moved into hospice care and eventually passed, the staff was with us all the way. We cannot thank them enough for all they did.
