The Stapleton market specifically
Stapleton mixes NYCHA housing with private senior communities amid ongoing waterfront redevelopment, and its SIR station makes it easy for family members without cars to visit often.
Families often compare Stapleton to Tompkinsville directly, since both sit on the North Shore's older housing stock near Richmond University Medical Center.
Visit twice, at different hours
A scheduled mid-morning tour and an unannounced 7 p.m. drop-in can look like two different buildings. Evening and overnight are when staffing thins and when families are most often surprised.
Eat a meal there. Talk to a resident's family member in the parking lot rather than one the community introduces you to.
