A senior living community in Minneapolis's East Lake Harriet neighborhood offering independent senior living, assisted living, and enhanced assisted living care suites. Formerly branded Walker Methodist Place; the parent organization rebranded to Vivie and the community now operates under this name.

Walker Place by Vivie occupies a long-standing site in Minneapolis's East Lake Harriet neighborhood and traces its roots to Walker Methodist, a senior-care organization operating in the Twin Cities since 1945. The organization completed a corporate rebrand to Vivie and the community's operator-published site now uses the Walker Place by Vivie name throughout, including on its location and care-options pages.

The community offers independent senior living apartments with full kitchens and included light cleaning and grounds maintenance; assisted living with medication management, 24-hour team support and a personal emergency pendant; and enhanced assisted living in a dedicated care-suites neighborhood with 24-hour licensed nursing and registered-dietitian support. On-site amenities described on the operator's page include the Pioneer Grill restaurant and bistro, a wellness center with on-site physical and occupational therapy, gardens, a library, an art studio, a chapel, and a salon. The site notes Walker Place is pet-welcome and that residents can transition to higher levels of care within the same building as needs change.

Minneapolis in context

As the region's hub, Minneapolis carries the metro's deepest bench of hospital-affiliated senior care, anchored by Allina Health's Abbott Northwestern Hospital in the Whittier neighborhood and the University of Minnesota Medical Center / M Health Fairview campus along the Mississippi riverfront. The city's light-rail spine, where the METRO Blue and Green Lines converge downtown, puts a large share of its assisted living and memory care buildings within walking distance of a train stop, a rarity in the Twin Cities. Building stock ranges from converted early-1900s apartment blocks in neighborhoods like Loring Park to newer high-rise senior communities downtown and near the Chain of Lakes.

Questions families ask

Who can advocate for a resident who has no family nearby in the Twin Cities?

The Minnesota Office of Ombudsman for Long-Term Care (1-800-657-3591) advocates for any resident of a licensed facility regardless of whether family is involved, and Trellis, the metro's Area Agency on Aging, can connect isolated seniors with care coordination and other supportive services through the Senior LinkAge Line (1-800-333-2433).

Does a resident need a lawyer to file an ombudsman complaint in Minnesota?

No. Contacting the Minnesota Office of Ombudsman for Long-Term Care at 1-800-657-3591 is free and does not require an attorney — the office exists specifically to provide free advocacy and complaint resolution for long-term care residents and their families.

How do I report abuse or neglect at a Twin Cities facility?

Call the Minnesota Adult Abuse Reporting Center (MAARC) at 1-844-880-1574, a statewide line staffed 24/7, to report suspected physical, sexual, or emotional abuse, financial exploitation, or neglect of a vulnerable adult anywhere in Minnesota, including all seven metro counties.
