Our His­to­ry

Built on a strong foundation

Our tra­di­tion of qual­i­ty dates to 1917, when Engle­wood neigh­bor­hood res­i­dent Susie Wood­man, Dr. William Gregg and a group of vol­un­teers found­ed Oakhaven Old People’s Home. The com­mu­ni­ty, which adopt­ed the name ​“Smith” in 1929 to hon­or a gen­er­ous gift from the estate of Emi­lie Smith, evolved to become Smith Senior Living.
