Buffington Towers sits at 224 East 7th Street in downtown Little Rock and offers a comfortable place for seniors aged 62 and older, as well as people with disabilities, to call home, and it's pretty easy to see people coming and going from the covered drop-off area at the entrance, and there are bus stops and the River Cities Travel Center close by if you want to get around town, and you'll find a card-key entry system for security, along with an emergency call system in the bedroom and bathroom with pull cords, so help isn't ever far away if someone needs it. The building, built in 1983, is managed by LHP and features 109 spacious units-one bedroom, studio, and two bedroom/one bath choices-with big windows, updated fixtures, refrigerators with icemakers, microwaves, dishwashers, and luxury vinyl plank floors, and the rent includes all the basic utilities like heat, A/C, water, electricity, trash, and pest control, which keeps life simple and budgets easy to manage.
People here seem to enjoy gathering both inside and out-the big community room has plenty of space for socials, games, and activities, and the library offers quiet time, while the fitness area's on hand for residents who want a bit of exercise. The fenced patio out back, fitted with in-ground tables and benches, gets used often for group coffees or just catching up with friends, and the outdoor spots for walking or sitting give everyone a place to enjoy fresh air. Buffington Towers sets up many social, educational, and devotional activities on-site, and holds religious services to help support everyone's spiritual well-being, and with both indoor and outdoor common areas, there's always a place to connect or have some time alone when needed. There's a real focus on making life easier while helping people stay active, whether you're looking for independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, hospice care, adult day services, or home care-with a full kitchen and laundry rooms on-site, and 24/7 emergency maintenance for peace of mind.
The staff here includes a resident coordinator who connects people to social services, community resources, and support with things like bathing, dressing, and medication management, so there's help whether you'd like a little assistance or need more hands-on care. Transportation and parking are available, and accessibility features like wide elevators and wheelchair-accessible showers take the stress out of moving around, and there's always someone at the front desk on weekdays to answer questions or lend a hand. Buffington Towers keeps its focus on making sure seniors feel welcome, safe, and supported, encouraging friendships and an active life, with nutritious meals served daily and plenty of chances to chat with neighbors or join an event. The management team works steadily to improve things, always looking for ways that could help, and the building has earned awards for care and support across different senior living areas. Residents, their friends, and visitors find a friendly environment, and the well-trained staff seem happy to help with both small and bigger needs, and the property keeps a record of past sales, rental rates, and other facts about the building in detailed reports if someone ever wants the numbers. This community has a straightforward approach, offering practical features that support independence and make daily life more comfortable for older adults who want both privacy and a sense of belonging.
