While Barb City Manor officially opened its doors 46 years ago, the idea and planning for a community-centered home for older adults, and in the beginning also a day care, began more than 50 years ago. What started as a shared vision has grown into a place of comfort, independence, and connections for countless residents. From our very first residents to the hundreds who have made this their home, we are thankful to be able to be a part of our community. How are YOU connected to Barb City Manor? Birth, Appendix, family, past employee? We want to know! ... See MoreSee Less
