The Sky Lounge has a stunning view of Commencement Bay! Located in the heart of Stadium District the location is outstanding.

PositiveNext best to my own home
After being my husband's full-time caregiver for several years, I knew a change in lifestyle was imminent. I moved to Merrill Gardens at Wright Park to have the security and comfort of knowing others were nearby. Following my husband’s passing in 2025, I chose to stay. The staff here are genuinely kind, helpful, and caring. The food and dining staff are exceptional during daily dining, holiday buffets, and special events. Additionally, the building is beautiful and well-maintained by patient maintenance and housek…

PositiveI'd live Here!
Merrill Gardens at Wright Park is a top-notch facility where you can trust your loved ones to be cared for. I moved my mother in 18 months ago and both of us have been nothing but happy. The building is beautiful and clean. It doesn't have a shade of 'old-folks-home'. The staff as well as residents are all so nice. I think they like being there too! The food is great and they even have an amazing, roof top sky terrace where extended family can gather by reservation. I recommend it to all my friends whose parents ma…

PositiveGreat Home in a Nice, Convenient Neighborhood
My parents moved to Merrill Gardens nearly three years ago. It’s been a good move. This is a place where it’s easy to have those small but important interactions and make friends. I enjoy talking with residents and staff, and it’s clear staff cares about and enjoys working with an older population. I appreciate the nice variety of activities on offer and know that my parents take advantage of them. I like the residence’s neighborly feel thanks to the many comfortable seating areas. The building is set up for acces…

PositiveMerrill Gardens at Wright Park
In Spring 2025, I visited my older sister from my home in Virginia. It was obvious by the missed medical appointments, unopened mail, unanswered professional and personal phone calls, forgotten bills, etc, that she could no longer live by herself in the spacious one-level, three bedroom house she had owned for 50 years. Fortunately, my sister agreed with me and visited four CCRCs in the greater Tacoma, WA, area. Merrill Gardens at Wright Park clearly impressed us the most from top to bottom with its friendly, knowl…

PositiveMom is thriving here
We moved Mom into a studio apartment at Merrill Gardens Wright Park (MGWP) under assisted living in [Date Removed]. One of the important features for us is that MGWP has an amazing memory care program, as we weren’t sure how quickly Mom’s Alzheimer’s would progress and when she might need that additional level of care. It turns out it happened more quickly than expected, and the wonderful staff at MGWP helped us seamlessly transition Mom from her studio apartment on the 3rd floor into her private apartment in Garde…
