From the Community
Van Dyk Park Place, designed by President & CEO Robert Van Dyk in 2001, remains one of the most stunning assisted living communities nationwide (licensed 120 beds). The Victorian architecture – featuring soft pastel colors, Mansard rooftops, decorative gables and eaves – creates a whimsical aura that transports residents to an era they remember fondly. The property is nestled in a hill overlooking Goffle Brook Park in Hawthorne– one of New Jersey’s safest and friendliest neighborhoods. Every common living area inside Van Dyk Park Place was carefully curated to give residents an elegant residential living experience. Bob’s Bistro captures the ambience of a café in Paris, serving as a popular space for tasting wine, sipping gourmet coffee and hosting private family events.
