About Balfour at Central Park
Balfour at Central Park is an assisted living and memory care community at 2979 Uinta Street in the Central Park neighborhood of Denver, on the redeveloped former Stapleton site where the old airport control tower still stands. A Balfour Senior Living community managed by Kisco Senior Living, it brings the Balfour brand's hospitality to a smaller, newer building focused on two care levels: assisted living and a secured memory care neighborhood.
Assisted living covers help with the daily routine, from medication management to bathing and dressing, in studio and one-bedroom apartments. Memory care runs through Balfour's Heirloom program, a secured, rhythm-centered neighborhood for residents with Alzheimer's and other dementias, with around-the-clock supervision, structured daily routines, and its own dining room. The memory care neighborhood is state-licensed for sixteen residents, which keeps it intimate.
Dining is a centerpiece: the Speckled Egg restaurant anchors the assisted living side with executive-chef, made-to-order meals, a seasonal menu, daily specials, and room service, and special diets from vegetarian to low-sodium are handled. Beyond meals, residents have a beauty salon and barber shop, a spa, and a coffee shop, plus a full life-enrichment calendar of gardening club, art classes, choir and live music, cooking classes, wine tastings, and day trips.
Fitness options include water aerobics, yoga, tai chi, and stretching, and a secured courtyard with raised garden beds gives memory care residents safe time outdoors. Staff serve residents in both English and Spanish, and short-term respite stays are available. Balfour at Central Park fits families who want Balfour-level hospitality and a strong, named memory care program in a newer building within a walkable, amenity-rich neighborhood.
It is private pay, so Medicaid is not accepted, and the community is pet-friendly. The Central Park location is well connected: Stanley Marketplace, with its food hall and shops, is about five minutes away, and Eastbridge Town Center handles everyday errands within the neighborhood. The Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, including UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital and the Rocky Mountain Regional VA Medical Center, is a short drive southeast via Quebec Street and Interstate 70, and downtown Denver is about fifteen minutes away.
Managed by Kisco Senior Living under the Balfour brand, Balfour at Central Park pairs chef-driven dining and the Heirloom memory care program with a newer, hospitality-forward building in one of Denver's most-walkable redeveloped neighborhoods.
