SENIOR HOUSING:
Partnership with the
Past,
Present,
Future

Caldwell Dominican Sister Rita Margaret Chamber’s dream of affordable housing for an aging society was realized on September 15, 1981 when Marian Manor welcomed its first residents.  This lovely residence in Caldwell offers 176 New Jersey State-subsidized apartments to senior citizens living on fixed incomes.  Activities, social services, spiritual events and wonderful friends combine in this building to make it the “new home” that is “just perfect” for its residents.

The dream of enlarging our Caldwell congregation’s ability to provide appropriate senior housing was realized through the work of Sister Alice Matthew Thees, OP when, in the midst of a 1996 snowstorm, the first residents of  Siena Village in Wayne, NJ moved into their new home.  This 250-apartment complex of low, moderate, and market-value apartments provides facilities and services for “A Community of Active, Independent Seniors.” 

The Dominican Sisters who help to staff Siena Village send you this message: "You’re always welcome to stop in and visit…but we may not all be home the day you come – our residents enjoy their many opportunities for day trips and bus tour vacations!
