The building opened in 2018 and, until April 2026, operated as Legacy House of Avondale.

The community's website says the community keeps a full-time licensed nurse and 24-hour care staff, and describes its dementia care approach as a program called Lavender Sky. It also says residents can move between levels of care without changing apartments.
