Our History

McGregor: A Non-Profit Organization Providing Aging Services

Growing to Serve Seniors

While McGregor’s roots date back to 1877, we’ve experienced much change in recent years. In 2019, McGregor opened a new three-story, 90-unit Assisted Living residence on our 45-acre campus. Beautifully landscaped, with a mix of low-income and market-rate units, the residence provides the quality care and vibrant lifestyle that are McGregor’s hallmarks. In 2020, we received a HUD grant to construct 54 new units and renovate 26 assisted living apartments for subsidized senior housing. Also in 2020, we opened our newest PACE (Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly) outpatient facility, PACE at Forest Hill. McGregor PACE supports seniors and gives peace of mind to the individuals who care the most for them by providing care, therapy, socialization, and other services to help seniors remain in their homes.

 As the senior population grows, so does McGregor. Learn more about who we are, our mission-driven approach to aging services, and our commitment to delivering the highest standard of care for our residents and their families.

Our History in the Cleveland Community

A Legacy of Care for Seniors

The Original Home for Aged Women

THE WESTERN RESERVE HISTORICAL SOCIETY, CLEVELAND, OHIO

The McGregor story starts in 1877 when Amasa Stone, the legendary capitalist and prominent Cleveland philanthropist, and his wife, Julia, built and endowed one of the first private organizations in Cleveland specifically for the care of seniors—the Home for Aged Women, later to be renamed the Amasa Stone House, on what is now East 46th Street and Cedar Avenue.

Later the Amasa Stone House and McGregor merged with a common legacy of The Gardens Of McGregor and, in 2001, successfully combined the services into one new facility to enable greater efficiencies, with the completion of “The Gardens” in 2004. 

 Recognized as a leader of innovation and high-value services, The McGregor Foundation continues its mission through philanthropy that enables programs and resources to continue to be available, including affordable housing, workforce development for those who work with seniors, and total quality of life programming for seniors in all settings, wherever they call home.
