In 1911 the Home moved to the old Waterbury Hospital Nurses' Home on Wilson Street. Finally, in 1924 the cornerstone of the present building on Columbia Boulevard was laid and completed in 1925, ready for the occupancy of thirty-five ladies. Today the Home is a place for retirement, open to self-sufficient women, regardless of race, color, national origen or religion, who are in satisfactory physical and mental health. Here one finds a congenial atmosphere which provides companionship with other women, planned recreational activities and weekly interdenominational church services.
Residents are free to come and go as they wish.
The rates are reasonable in today's world and give many women the security they may not recently have had. The Southmayd Home, Incorporated is licensed by the State of Connecticut.
